For the Tomahawk Leader
RHINELANDER – The Alzheimer’s Association is offering a workshop to provide information and tips on healthy aging.
“At any age, there are lifestyle habits we can adopt to help maintain or even potentially improve our health,” a release from the Alzheimer’s Association said. “These habits may also help to keep our brains healthy as we age and possibly delay the onset of cognitive decline associated with Alzheimer’s disease.”
To help people age well, the Alzheimer’s Association is offering the “Healthy Living for Your Brain and Body: Tips from the Latest Research” program.
This workshop covers four areas of lifestyle habits that are associated with healthy aging: cognitive activity; physical health and exercise; diet and nutrition; and social engagement.
“In each area, we will discuss what we know, drawing on current research, as well as what we can do – steps to take now to improve or maintain overall health in each area,” the release stated. “This program is designed for individuals of any age who are looking for information on ways to age as well as possible.”
The Healthy Living for Your Brain and Body workshop will be held at the ADRC of Oneida County, 100 Keenan St., Rhinelander, on Tuesday, July 16, from 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.
