Members engaged warmly with a helpful guide summarizing diets for brain health, including the Mediterranean, DASH, MIND, and Intermittent Fasting approaches. Several members shared personal strategies alongside the dietary information, with one member noting nearly three years of improvement using Lumosity brain training games about once a week, and another sharing they were beginning to try the Mediterranean diet. A recurring theme was gratitude for the guide being shared in smaller, digestible sections, along with appreciation for the community member who took the time to break down the 66-page document for others.

Thanks for letting me know. I don't want to annoy but this document is 66 pages long so several more installments will be coming. Happy reading and learning and for letting m do what I love to do.

Thanks for your input Bruce. I'm doing both. Are seeing a slowing or improvement in your memory? How long have you been using Lumosity?
