Key things to know and discover about brain health.
Our brains make us who we are. Brain health is crucial for maintaining cognitive functions such as memory, thinking, and decision-making, which are essential for daily life. Keeping your brain healthy can help you stay independent, improve your quality of life, and reduce the risk of cognitive decline and related conditions like dementia.
Cognitive screening is a quick and simple way to check your brain and detect potential signs of impairment as early as possible, when simple lifestyle changes can make a difference. Catching changes sooner can lead to more timely interventions, better management of potential issues, and improved outcomes for your overall health.
Establishing a baseline is the first step to understanding your cognitive status, offering an essential reference point that helps your doctor benchmark and monitor your brain health over time. Up to 40% of dementia cases may be prevented with lifestyle changes, emphasizing the importance of proactive screening to maximize options and support overall health.
BrainCheck offers comprehensive cognitive assessments that provide valuable insights into your brain health. By asking for a BrainCheck at your next annual wellness visit, you can partner with your doctor to monitor changes over time.
