Seniors, Talk More To Prevent Memory Loss

Seniors should talk more because there is currently no way to prevent memory loss. One of the ways to reduce the probability of its occurrence is to talk more. That is the current thinking among many doctors.

Talking keeps the brain active

Firstly talking activates the brain and keeps the brain active because language and thought communicate with each other, especially when speaking quickly, which naturally results in faster thinking reflection and also enhances memory. Senior citizens who do not speak, are more likely to lose their memory.

Talking is a stress reliever

Secondly talking relieves a lot of stress, avoids mental illness and reduces stress. We often say nothing but bury it in our hearts and suffocate ourselves. It’s true! So! It would be nice to give seniors a chance to talk more.

Talking keeps the face and throat muscles active

Thirdly talking can exercise the active facial muscles & at the same time, exercise the throat & also increase the capacity of the lungs, at the same time, it reduces the risk of eye and ear deterioration and reduces latent chances such as dizziness. and deafness.

In short, seniors should talk more to loved ones and friends to reduce their chances of developing Alzheimer’s. So get on the telephone, mobile or Zoom and start talking.
