Brain Fitness Programs

Taxonomy Code: PH-6200.0800

Programs that feature mental exercises often called "brain games", physical exercise, proper nutrition, adequate sleep, stress management strategies, recommendations regarding other sound lifestyle choices and/or other activities whose objective is to maintain or increase brain function including attention, memory, processing speed, visual processing, auditory processing, reasoning and working memory as people age. Although there is strong evidence that aspects of brain structure remain plastic throughout life, and that high levels of mental activity are associated with reduced risks of age-related dementia, scientific support for the concept of "brain fitness" is limited. The term is virtually never used in the scientific literature, but is commonly used in the context of self-help books and commercial products.
