A strong memory depends on the health and vitality (活力) of your brain. They say that youcan’t teach an old dog new tricks, but when it comes to the brain, scientistshave discovered that this old saying simply isn’t true.
Give your brain a workout. Memory, like muscular strength, requiresyou to “use it or lose it”. The more you work out your brain, the better you’llbe able to process and remember information.
Don’t skip the physical exercise. While mental exercise is important forbrain health, that doesn’t mean you never need to break a sweat. Physical exercise helps your brainstay sharp. It increases oxygen to your brain and reduces the risk fordisorders that lead to memory loss.
Get enough sleep. There is a big difference between the amount ofsleep you can get by on and the amount you need to function at your best.Keep stress in check. Stress is one of the brain’s worst enemies.Over time, stress destroys braincells. Studies have also linked stress to memory loss.
Have a laugh. That holds true for the brain and the memory,as well as the body. Unlike emotional responses, which are limited to specificareas of the brain, laughter engages multiple regions across the whole brain.
Just as the body needs fuel, so does the brain. Youprobably already know that a diet based on fruits, vegetables, whole grains, “healthy”fats and lean protein will provide lots of health benefits, but such a diet canalso improve memory. For brain health, though, it’s not just what you eat—it’salso what you don’t eat.
A. Eat a brain-boosting diet.
B. Play games with memory.
C. Laughter is the best medicine.
D. But oversleeping is not good for yourbrain.
E. Even skipping a few hours makes adifference!
F. You have to shake things up from timeto time!
G. The human brain has an astonishingability to adapt and change.
