Why do elderly people in Chinese villages suffer less from memory problems than elderly people in Western countries?
Is everyone predisposed to Alzheimer’s disease? Does the brain of an old person have an advantage over the brain of a young one? Why does one person remain healthy and vigorous even at the age of 100, while another complains of age-related problems already at 60? André Aleman, professor of cognitive neuropsychology at the University of Groningen (Netherlands), who studies brain function in older people, answers these and many other burning questions related to old age. As it turns out, aging can be «successful» and there are scientifically proven techniques to slow down or even reverse the aging process in the brain.
