Is Your Brain Lazy?

Other than crossword puzzles, what can you do to prevent memory loss and keep your brain sharp?
Has this ever happened to you: You forget someone's name, set down your keys and a minute later, cannot remember where you placed them, or you go into a room to grab something and have no idea what you were supposed to get? 

For most of us, this forgetfulness is just mental laziness, but you are sometimes left wondering, is this the beginning of cognitive decline?

Harvard-trained neurologist Dr. Richard Isaacson, MD explains how to stimulate your brain and the science-based dietary tips for boosting memory.
