Eating a daily serving of peanuts may help older adults improve blood flow to their brains and boost memory, according to new research. In a study published in Clinical Nutrition, scientists at the ...

Hypertension begins harming the brain surprisingly early, even before measurable blood pressure increases. Key cells related to blood vessels, signaling, and myelin maintenance begin aging prematurely ...

When you are dying, at least in my limited experience, you start remembering everything. Images come in flashes—people and places and stray conversations—and refuse to stop. I see my best friend from ...

While the exact causes of neurodegenerative brain diseases like Alzheimer's and dementia are still largely unknown, researchers have been able to identify a key characteristic in affected brains: ...

Hypertension in a person's 30s and 40s is associated with late-life cognitive decline, increasing the risk of mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Hypertension is associated with difficulties in ...
