Today’s Medical Advancements Treat the Aging Brain, Offering Active, Independent and Redefining Retirement Era
SUMTER COUNTY, Fla. /Massachusetts Newswire – National News/ Despite U.S. Baby Boomers having the longest life expectancy in history [1], their brains are aging at a faster rate than previous generations, according to a recent Ohio State University nationwide study [2]. For Boomers, the first generation to show cognition regression, research indicates that wealth and education have no equitable bearings on brain function. Currently ranging from ages 62 to 72 (born 1948-1959) and primed for a lengthy and enriching retirement, the feared complexities of living an increasingly longer life – but with a quickly declining brain – is evitable for those able and willing to invest in advanced treatments, such as the Aviv Medical Program.
The role of citrus in brain health: ‘Citrus bioactive compounds improve general cognition’
Published in
Frontiers in Neuroscience, the new study showed that citrus polyphenols have anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties – both important for protecting brain tissues from damage, for example, due to ageing or underlying health conditions.
The research, carried out by a team from the University of East Anglia, collated hundreds of studies that looked at the impact of citrus flavonoids on brain cells and nerves, as well as 10 studies in human populations.
“Having examined the available evidence, we are most confident in the finding that citrus bioactive compounds (i.e. nutrients and polyphenols) improve general cognition, both in healthy populations and people with age-related cognitive decline,” research author Dr David Vauzour, a Senior Research Fellow at the Norwich Medical School, told FoodNavigator.

When Hollywood notices a trend, it’s a reasonable bet that it has become mainstream.
So, as shown by this year’s Golden Globes extravaganza, digital health has officially joined diversity, climate change, and social equity as one of the premier celebrity issues of our time.
Indeed, healthy aging a positive outcome of digital health, especially during the pandemic took center stage all night, as nearly 20 million viewers watched 80-year-old Jane Fonda receive her Cecil B. DeMille award, recognize 98-year-old Norman Lear for his longevity, and celebrate I Care A Lot, a comedy about two tough ladies and the Russian mafia making money off of elder caregiving, which also seems to have entered the pop culture psyche.
