The Alzheimer Society is making its own commitment to helping Canadians improve their brain health with the launch of BrainBooster, an online gym of challenging games and puzzles designed to increase mental performance. The gym also features brain-boosting recipes and simple exercises to get people moving. Canadians can access the gym by visiting www.alzheimer.ca. Once there, they can also sign up with their personal “brain” pledge and enter our Puzzled about Alzheimer’s contest, showcased in the February-March issue of Homemakers and Madame Magazines, as well as their online sites.
