Neurologists Warn of Rising Brain Health Crisis

Neurologists warn that symptoms like sudden severe headaches, persistent dizziness, or worsening memory in individuals over 50 may indicate serious conditions like stroke, Parkinson's, or brain tumours.

Early evaluation is critical because the brain often compensates for disease, meaning underlying conditions may be advanced by the time symptoms become obvious to the patient.

Experts recommend maintaining brain health through 7-8 hours of sleep, 30 minutes of daily physical exercise, a balanced diet, and avoiding smoking or excessive alcohol consumption.
