Is old age all doom and gloom? Not at all! Some functions in the aging brain decline, but many other brain functions remain stable ‐ or even improve ‐ as we age. Furthermore, nurture plays as significant a role as nature, and there are a number of strategies you can implement to stave oﬀ declining brain function, including appropriate physical activity, a healthy diet, vibrant social life, and reducing stress This course is intended to give you a wealth of new insights into what happens to the brain over time ‐ as well as strategies to mitigate the eﬀects of aging and enhance your quality of life. We will examine cellular and even molecular levels of the brain to show you why certain functions decline, how some aspects of brain aging are under generic control, and what you can do to prolong your health and keep your mind sharp. Aging aﬀects us all, but you have some control over how it aﬀects you. This course includes clips from The Great Courses: The Aging Brain with Dr. Thad A. Polk.
