We often look for complex, expensive solutions for longevity, but the latest research from Monash University points to a beautifully simple one: music.

The latest study of 11,000 older adults confirms that actively engaging with music, both playing an instrument or singing, is a powerful cognitive defense mechanism.

The study found that heavy listeners of music was associated with a 39% lower risk of dementia and 17% lower risk of cognitive impairment, as well as higher overall scores in cognition and episodic memory.

Even average music listeners saw an immense benefit,with a 33% lower risk of dementia and a 22% lower risk of cognitive impairment.

The genius behind this finding lies in cognitive reserve.

When you learn to master rhythm, pitch, and memory simultaneously, your brain is forced into complex, multi-tasking gymnastics.

This builds robust new neural pathways, making your brain more resilient, better equipped to weather age-related decline.

Some things in life ARE free, like improving your brain health with the power of music.

It’s been a really good year for coffee drinkers.

REALLY good year.

The latest research drop shows that a cup of coffee a day (caffeine included), showed an enormous benefit to participants with heart rythym disorders, contrary to decades of “advice” from doctors.

Enjoy your morning joe with some peace of mind…👇🏼
