CER to offer upcoming community activity

Fairmont Community Education & Recreation (CER) will offer an upcoming community activity. De-Age Your Brain, will be held 6-7:30 p.m. Tuesday, May 14, online via Zoom. Current research shows lifestyle and diet have a big effect on how the brain ages. Cognitive function, which covers all aspects of perceiving, thinking, and reasoning, can improve. And the very good news is no matter what your age there are things you can begin to do today to improve how quickly and effectively brain cells communicate with each other. They’ll discuss which ‘superfoods’ reduce the damaging effects of toxins and inflammation on the brain and which nutrients are great for memory, attention, processing information and reducing stress. You will lean simple, easy to implement strategies to help your brain stay healthy and alert. The fee is $29. Registration closes May 10. For questions, call the CER office at (507) 235-3141.
