Can we change how our brain ages? Scientists think it’s possible. Medical speech-language pathologist Meaghan Arnold joins hosts Jessica Reyes and Patricia Wu to explore this topic on “What’s Trending.”
Healthy Habits, Happy Brains
In Loma Linda, California, scientists are seeing amazing results from people who eat well, stay social, and keep their minds active. Meaghan says research constantly proves that a healthy lifestyle makes a difference and the saying “if you don’t use it you lose it” plays a huge role in how our brain ages.
Tech-Savvy Brain Boosting
With the help of AI and MRI scans, researchers can now track brain aging and catch issues early, aiming to stop problems before they start. Meaghan explains that overtime the more brains scientists and researchers scan, the better understanding we’ll have of brain disorders like Alzheimer’s, dementia, and more.
