Structured lifestyle intervention. Participants attended 38 facilitated peer team meetings over two years and were provided with a prescribed activity program with measurable goals for:

- aerobic, resistance and stretching exercise

- adherence to the MIND diet, a combination of the Mediterranean diet with the salt restrictions of the DASH diet

- cognitive challenge through BrainHQ training and other intellectual and social activities

- regular review of health metrics and goal-setting with a study clinician



Just BrainHQ training alone would likely increase the scores. The rest is general health management.


"General health" has been shown to affect cognitive performance.

Especially when you are including sleep and diet in "general health"


It sure does. I just recently had to switch to 'healthy' diet. Positive effect in many ways. Including clear thinking, focus and performance. But, there is nothing new here.
