Recent studies show that a memory improvement game like crossword puzzles could help you stop forgetting things as easily.
For many, though, taking part in those activities might seem out of the way. But, with this science-backed memory improvement game, you could easily improve your memory, while also enjoying your morning coffee.
To discover this memory improvement game, researchers tested a large group of individuals broken down into two groups. The first group played computer games, while the second group took part in crossword puzzles.After weeks of testing, the researchers discovered that the group completing crossword puzzles fared much better in terms of memory and cognitive functions than those who had taken part in computer games.
“This is the first study to document both short-term and longer-term benefits for home-based crossword puzzles training compared to another intervention,”one of the authors on the research. “The results are important in light of difficulty in showing improvement with interventions in mild cognitive impairment.”
Of course, this study is just a small taste of what a memory improvement game could actually offer if utilized more thoroughly in patients requiring help with their memory. But, if it can help cut down on the fickleness of our memories, it could help increase cognitive function for those struggling with diseases that target memories, like Alzheimer’s.
