But you're seeing improvements in cognitive function with novel cognitive stimuli.

There's a lot of recent trials that have also used

types of brain training, things like the pointer trial that was here in the US, Maintain Your Brain, which was a massive online study done in Australia recently.

And that's sort of broad, cognitive training with like an online cognitive training platform.

So again, it's a new or novel intervention or exposure that seems to provide a stimulus that improves function.

So I think both can be or do seem to be important.

The Maintain Your Brain study was actually, it was sort of midlife, kind of 50s and 60s mainly.

And they actually had interventions across four different domains based on risk factors within that given individual.

So they had a dietary intervention.

They had physical activity.

They had cognitive behavioral therapy for those who had diabetes.

some potentially some mental health concerns.

And then they had online brain training.

There was something similar done in the pointer trial, which was in older adults, now 60s and 70s, that was done here in the US.

That was a replication of an older trial called the finger trial that was done in Finland.

But what those guys did was something very similar.

So it's a diet, exercise, monitoring and treating cardiovascular risk factors, and then brain training.

What the brain training looks like, so the POINTS trial is a good example.

They use the platform called BrainHQ.
