The Alzheimer’s drugs touted as a turning point in the fight against the disease can cause the brain to shrink, scientists have warned.

“For some people, short daytime naps may be a part of the puzzle that could help preserve the health of the brain as we get older,” said one researcher.

Smoking is notorious for causing damage to the lungs, but recent research confirmed that it’s also harmful to the brain. We explore a new study and gather expert input.

Smoking cigarettes not only has the great potential to give you cancer, but it may also apparently shrink your poor noggin,' leading to an inevitable brain drain of dementia and Alzheimer's, according to a new study published in the journal Biological Psychiatry: Global Open Science. For this study, a team of researchers from Missouri and […]

A new study indicated that regular daytime napping might be able to prevent brain shrinkage as we age. Previous research recommends napping between 10 to 30 minutes—and not more than an hour—to improve mood and cognitive performance. Longer naps can reduce sleep drive and they've been associated with an increased risk of heart problems and type 2 diabetes.

Taking short daytime naps may help maintain brain health as individuals age, according to a recent study conducted by researchers from University College London (UCL) and the University of the Republic of Uruguay. The study suggests that habitual napping is associated with larger total brain volume

Researchers found a link between habitual napping and larger total brain volume - a marker of good brain health linked to a lower risk of dementia

Researchers hope their findings will help reduce any stigma that still exists around daytime napping.

A part of the brain connected to memory shrank in people with severe sleep-disordered breathing, which can include heavy snoring and sleep apnea
