Do They Help With Dementia?

What you need to know about Brain Games is quite disheartening. A popular Brain Training company was fined $2M in 2016 for deceptive advertising, claiming amongst other things that their Brain Games could help stave off memory loss, Dementia and even Alzheimer’s. But it turns out they have no science to back it up.

The ads claimed that spending 10-15 minutes a day 3 times a week with their Brain Games would ‘unlock your full potential in every aspect of life.’

‘Brain Games’ enable you to play the exercises quicker, fooling many people into believing they are actually getting smarter.

If you constantly play a video game, through familiarity, you will get better at that video game, but it won’t make you better at things that matter, like better job performance or actually increasing your ability to remember better.

If you truly want to exercise your brain, the activity needs to be something new.

It needs to be challenging, like learning a new language, learning to play an instrument or taking up a new sport.

And it needs to be fun, emotional and physical enjoyment is important to the brains learning process. So unless you’re playing Brain Games for any reason than having fun, save your money and……forget about them!
