Swedish scientists have named three simple habits that slow down brain aging

With age, the brain loses its plasticity, reduces memory, attention and ability to learn. However, Swedish scientists are convinced that even without medicines and complex procedures, these processes can be slowed down. In Svenska Dagbladet, they spoke about three key habits that are available to everyone.

1. Move more

In the first place in the list - physical activity. According to the researchers, a sedentary lifestyle activates inflammatory processes in the body and significantly increases the risk of dementia. Movement is the easiest way to maintain vessels, oxygen supply to the brain and reduce the risks of Alzheimer or Parkinson's disease.

“Physical passivity accelerates the aging of nerve cells. Even moderate activity helps to counteract this daily , ”experts say.

2. Sleep enough

A healthy nighttime sleep is another important habit. During sleep, the brain is not just "resting", but is actively cleansed of protein residues that accumulate due to stress and daytime loads.

These "waste" can turn into toxic compounds that disrupt nerve cells. Regular deep sleep is a natural mechanism for prevention of such disorders.

3. Take care of the intestine

The relationship between the condition of the intestinal microflora and the health of the brain today is no doubt. It is the intestine, not the brain, that produces up to 90% of serotonin - a hormone that regulates mood, stress resistance and psycho -emotional balance.

The best way to maintain intestinal microflora is a variety of nutrition with a lot of fiber, vegetables, legumes, fermented products.
