Einstein lived to a ripe old age — dying of a stomach aneurysm brought on by too much pipe smoking — but even in his advanced years his thinking skills remained highly effective.

That’s because his neural cells and connections were so vast and dense that the type of brain decline we associate with dementia could never get a foothold and cause damage. And thus Einstein retained his considerable mental capacity to the very end.

According to Dr. Karise Simmons — a leading authority on brain health and the author of “The Memory Recovery Blueprint”… “Memory loss is really just a loss of brain cells and its connections.”

“But the good news,” says Dr. Simmons, “Is you can build more neural cells and connections at any age.” And you don’t have to be a genius to do it.

In a special video presentation, Dr. Simmons has outlined 8 specific things you can do to potentially help build up your brain in order to stay sharp.

In his presentation, Dr. Simmons also includes a case study of your dad, who suffered from “severe cognitive decline” and started doing several of the things he already highlighted in order to see some decent changes, which of course may vary.
