Cognitive ageing
Cognitive aging refers to the natural decline in certain mental abilities as people get older. This can include slower thinking, forgetfulness, and difficulty concentrating or learning new things. However, these changes vary from person to person and don’t necessarily impact overall intelligence or independence. Factors like genetics, health, lifestyle, and mental stimulation influence how cognition evolves with age. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, staying mentally active, and managing health problems can help support cognitive function and delay some age-related changes.
