How To Prevent Memory Loss

Some of the memory enhancement tips are as follows:

1. Improve your memory fast with meditation. Start with five minutes a day. You can do it! Breathe out.
2. Researchers found that placebos generate a very strong response. Those on the placebo did so well that it was suspected that they did not have sufficient impairment at the beginning of the study. So get a bottle, label it Memory Pills, fill it with candy or nuts, and take one every time you forget to.
3. Put the things you use regularly such as keys, glasses, purse, watch, etc. in the same spot when you’re not using them.
4. If you have to put something down in a different place, look at the place when you put down the object and say the location out loud.
5. If necessary, write down where things are.
6. Antioxidants literally keep your brain cells from “rusting.”
7. B vitamins protect neurons and help reduce risk of cardiovascular diseases.
8. Avoiding saturated fats and trans fats helps cholesterol levels and reduces risk of stroke.
9. Smoking heightens the risk of vascular disorders that can cause stroke and constrict arteries that deliver oxygen to the brain.
10. Sleep is necessary for memory consolidation.
11. Sleep disorders like insomnia and sleep apnea leave you tired and unable to concentrate during the day.
12. Play games that involve strategy, like chess or bridge, and word games like Scrabble.
13. Work crossword and other word puzzles, or number puzzles such as Sudoku.
14. Read newspapers, magazines, and books that challenge you.
15. Get in the habit of learning new things: games, recipes, driving routes.
16. Take a course in an unfamiliar subject.
17. Be on the lookout for signs of depression. Older adults who are depressed are at risk for becoming confused and forgetful. If you think you could be depressed, seek professional help right away.
18. Have your blood pressure checked routinely. High blood pressure that is left untreated can affect your memory.
19. Take care to avoid injuries that can lead to memory loss. Wear a helmet if you bike, and safety-proof your house to help avoid falls.
20. Given that cardiovascular disease and cognitive impairment share risk factors, it makes sense that light drinking might also benefit memory and other aspects of cognitive functioning.
21. Women who drank one-half to one glass of alcohol per day had better cognitive scores than teetotalers.
22. Lower your blood pressure and improve your memory.
23. Regular tea drinking could be good for your memory, according to a new study.
