Your Aging Brain

"Some things get better with age, but after a certain point the mind isn't one of them.”

~Ann Landers

We tend to not remember things as easily as we age.

Walking into a room and forgetting what we needed.

Forgetting that new person's name you met at the neighborhood meeting.

Brain fog that you feel during your workday that leaves you feeling drained and with a headache.

We brush off these things as just getting older, but should we?

One in six people will develop dementia by the year 2030. (that's 7 years from now!)

Today, 1 new diagnosis of dementia happens every 30 seconds around the world

By age 20, our cognitive function begins to decline.

The US has more cases of dementia than any other country!

Why are so many of us encountering this disease?

While there are many factors and even more unknowns about dementia,

there are considered 4 lifestyle contributors that are within our control.

Stress, Lack of Sleep, Vitamin Deficiencies, and Alcohol Consumption

It is known that brain dysfunction and cognitive impairments are connected

with the rise of homocysteine in the body. This is a cardiovascular risk factor

damaging the vascular structures to the brain and leading to

increased risk of dementia related diseases.

Each of these factors can be directly improved by our own actions every day.

More and more people are seeking preventative support to retain and improve cognitive function.

It's just not those in their 40s or 50s either that are reaching for holistic help;

younger people are also realizing the necessity of protecting cognitive function throughout their life.

Cognitive function supplementation (nootropics) is a growing sub-section

of the supplement industry for exactly this reason. However, just like all trends,

we can easily use things that are not helping us because they don't align to our specific needs.

Your brain health is certainly one area where personalization of approach matters!

Supporting brain health helps ensure the quality in our years of later life

is not only possible but a vital part of our overall health.

For the supplements I recommend, visit the Dragonspit Dispensary.

You will find the products as an EZKit preset for you on the home page

You were made to feel your best every day.

Hugs!
