Cardiovascular surgeon Dr. Jeremy London shared a checklist on September 1, advising that maintaining blood pressure below 130/80 is a key lifestyle lever for brain health.
The surgeon recommends regular cardio and resistance training, managing blood sugar and visceral fat, and correcting hearing or vision impairments to reduce cognitive decline risks.
Additional preventive habits include limiting alcohol intake, wearing a helmet to prevent traumatic brain injuries, and staying socially and mentally engaged to support long-term neurological health.
