DO NOT Fail This Brain Test (For Early Dementia)

Memory loss is not the only early sign of dementia! Other common cognitive decline symptoms involve the speed at which you process information and your attention and focus.To perform the clock drawing test for dementia, set a timer for 30 seconds and draw a clock with the time set at 10 minutes after 11. To evaluate your results for any dementia risk factors, examine the following:•Were any numbers jumbled or missing?•Did you write all 12 numbers?•Were the numbers spaced correctly?•Were the hands of the clock facing the right direction?•Did you reverse the hour and the minute hands?•Were you unable to complete this in 30 seconds?The clock drawing test is one of the most sensitive indicators of early cognitive deficits and is considered more accurate than memory tests.If you didn’t pass this test or you made a mistake, don’t worry! You can do many things to support brain health and prevent or reverse dementia.Sugar shrinks your brain, especially the hippocampus, which controls memory. Chronic stress and poor sleep can also contribute to the problem. If you notice any signs of early dementia, increasing BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) is vital. BDNF helps grow brain tissue and prevents cognitive problems, as well as other issues like depression. Here are the best ways to increase BDNF:•Intermittent fasting •Cold therapy •Deep sleep •Learning difficult tasks or skills•High-intensity interval trainingKetones can also help reverse dementia and protect your brain against cognitive decline. A low-carb diet can increase ketones and has even been shown to reverse diabetes in 10 weeks!MCT oil, coconut oil, and ketone supplements can also provide the brain with ketones. To remain in ketosis, only consume a moderate amount of protein!
