flag A brain training game targeting attention and speed may cut dementia risk by 25% in adults over 65.

flag A new study finds that a specific computerized brain training game may reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s and other dementias by about 25% in adults over 65. flag Unlike traditional memory or problem-solving tasks, the most effective training focused on attention and processing speed. flag Participants identified a vehicle—like a car or tractor—in a scene while quickly locating a Route 66 sign amid distractions. flag As performance improved, the speed of image changes increased, challenging rapid visual processing. flag The results suggest consistent use of this type of game may help delay or prevent dementia, offering a promising non-drug approach to maintaining brain health in older adults.
