flag A 2026 study links lifelong mental activity to a 38% lower Alzheimer’s risk and delayed onset by five years.

flag A 2026 study in Neurology® links lifelong engagement in mentally stimulating activities like reading, writing, and learning languages to a 38% lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease and a 36% lower risk of mild cognitive impairment. flag Researchers analyzed data from 1,939 adults aged 80 on average over eight years, finding that highly active individuals developed Alzheimer’s an average of five years later. flag While the study shows association, not causation, it suggests sustained mental engagement may support brain health, with public investment in education and learning resources potentially helping reduce dementia rates.
