The wellness tip for today is to workout that brain! This isn’t exclusive to crossword puzzles. Anything that challenges your brain will help keep amyloid plaque at bay. Amyloid is plaque that builds up in the brain and causes Alzheimer’s disease. You can find the research for this tip HERE.
“Challenging your mind can stave off the accumulation of a compound known as beta-amyloid in the brain, responsible for diseases such as Alzheimer’s. Puzzles are a great way to do just this, so be sure to include the whole family.” ~ fatherly.com
A great idea, just don’t start with the Sunday Times!

🤣 Exactly! I used to watch my dad do a crossword every night, in pen! (Though it wasn’t The NY Times)

My grandmother, who only had an eighth grade education, did crosswords every day, always in ink too! Amazing! I lose patience with them.
