If you keep forgetting things over and over again, you may be worried that "Isn't it dementia?" In fact, forgetting to do something is normal.

However, if the frequency of forgetting is too frequent, it is necessary to analyze the cause more carefully. Frequent forgetting does not mean dementia, but age is a common cause of memory loss. 

So, is there any way to prevent memory loss as we age? According to various research results, memory loss can be prevented to a large extent by maintaining a healthy lifestyle and proper training. Here are some tips to prevent memory loss.

Exercise

Exercise is one of the best ways to maintain good memory. In particular, light exercise, rather than high-intensity exercise, is more helpful in preserving memory. Light exercise, such as walking or gardening, can help keep your brain from shrinking as you age.

A recent study found that the brains of people who exercised moderately in old age were 2% larger on average than those who did not exercise. It is best to start exercising as early as a day.

If you start exercising from middle age, there is also research showing that it significantly reduces the risk of developing dementia after one year. In addition, there is a study showing that if you do light exercise 5 times a week for 30 minutes or more a day in your 20s, your memory will improve. 

Good Heart Health 

Maintaining an appropriate weight and avoiding foods high in cholesterol are not only effective in reducing the risk of heart disease. Maintaining this diet can also help prevent dementia. If you take special care in middle age, you can prevent memory loss with age. 

Eat fruits and vegetables frequently 

One of the main causes of memory loss is when the brain becomes oxidized or inflamed. However, fruits and vegetables are rich in natural antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. Therefore, eating plenty of fruits and vegetables can help prevent brain damage caused by oxidation and inflammation.

Take Supplements

Acai berries have been regarded for being loaded with antioxidants among many other nutrients. Recent studies about the cognitive health benefits of acai berries link it with improved working memory. Additionally, it also was found that acai consumption produces an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect which are beneficial in preventing neurodegenerative diseases.

Concentred acai supplements, like Nutridom's Brazillian Acai7 are currently available in the market and are attributed to improved overall brain function.
