Wired and tired: Screen time linked to downward spiral in kids
Excessive exposure to the artificial light emitted by electronic gadgets is responsible for the increasing number of “wired and tired” kids who are either keyed up and easily enraged or apathetic and depressed. The best way to deal with this problem is to decrease the inordinate amount of time kids spend using electronics every day. The brain […]

Not getting enough sleep accelerates brain damage linked to Alzheimer’s disease, warn researchers
Recent experiments show that lack of sleep increases the amount of tau protein in the brain. Tau is associated with Alzheimer’s disease, and it spreads across the brain at a much faster rate if a person suffers from sleeplessness. When tau proteins clump together to form tangles, they injure nearby tissues in the brain. If allowed to accumulate, these […]

Alarming study finds that Alzheimer’s impairs the brain by 30 years or more BEFORE symptoms get diagnosed
Contrary to conventional knowledge, Alzheimer’s disease does not start months or years before its effects on the brain became visible enough for healthcare providers to notice. Instead, the neurodegenerative disease starts many decades before its symptoms become apparent. Alzheimer’s is usually diagnosed in older people who are in their 70s or 80s. However, the brains of those patients […]

Take a walk, but just for a bit: Research shows that it helps with creativity, problem-solving
Whenever you go on a short walk before working on a tough problem, you use the same creativity-boosting technique Albert Einstein, Steve Jobs, and other geniuses used during their heyday. A recent study showed that walking plays an important role in getting the creative juices flowing and coming up with impressive solutions to problems. Researchers from Stanford University noted that many […]

Fructose found to alter hundreds of genes in the brain
A recent study reported that people who consume large amounts of fructose are more likely to develop all kinds of diseases because the sweetener affects numerous genes in the brain. Fructose causes gene alterations that are linked to serious diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease and diabetes. However, the researchers from University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) who conducted the study […]

These mood-boosting foods can help stave off depression
Depression is often linked to a deficiency in serotonin, an important neurotransmitter in the brain. Combining a serotonin diet with certain healthy foods like turmeric can naturally restore normal levels of this vital brain chemical. A meal rich in natural carbohydrates raises serotonin levels in the brain While some foods are rich in serotonin or its precursor tryptophan, eating […]

New study sheds light on how Alzheimer’s disease damages the brain
Researchers claimed to have figured out exactly how amyloid beta and tau proteins harm the brain during the onset and progress of Alzheimer’s disease. They urged for therapies that simultaneously target both pathogenic proteins because the structures they formed could interact with each other. When amyloid beta accumulates in the brain, it forms stiff plaques. Similarly, high levels […]

Healthy and drug-free: Natural remedies that can help address the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease
Prescription medications and deep brain stimulation are not the only ways to improve the condition of patients suffering from Parkinson’s disease. There are complementary and alternative medicines that are much safer and potentially as effective as the chemicals and surgically implanted devices when it comes to suppressing tremors. One of the best natural treatments is to work […]

Decreased deep sleep linked to cognitive decline and early signs of Alzheimer’s, warn researchers
Have you been having problems getting enough deep sleep? A new study warned that people who suffer from changing sleeping patterns could already be experiencing the initial symptoms of cognitive decline that eventually leads to Alzheimer’s disease. It is very difficult to detect this neurodegenerative disease. By the time it gets diagnosed, it often could not be slowed down […]

Tai chi found to benefit the brains of older people
Taking up mind-body exercises – for instance, ballroom dancing or tai chi – could help maintain the health of your brain and your body during the later years of your life. This regimen was supported by the results of a new study, in which exercises that involve both mental and physical activities raised the cognitive function […]
