Brain games to beat inactivity: new study aims to cut Alzheimer's risk

NCT ID NCT06338774

Summary

This study is testing whether a 6-week brain training program can help middle-aged adults stick to a regular exercise routine. Researchers want to see if improving mental focus and self-control makes it easier to adopt healthy habits, which may help reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease later in life. Participants will complete computer-based brain exercises at home, followed by a supervised and then home-based exercise program.
