Thumbs up the healthy brain program - Austrailia

The Healthy Brain Program


The Healthy Brain Program, an initiative of the Brain Foundation, aims to assist Australians to keep their brains healthy into old age, through the provision of community education and research. The program aims to address issues such as:

People are living longer, and the prevalence of degenerative brain disorders is increasing.
There is little information available about how to keep the brain healthy compared to the wealth of information about a healthy body and heart.
There is a need for a coordinated approach to education on key indicators and risk reduction strategies.
The program aims to:

Increase community awareness of the potential for improving the long term health of the brain through lifestyle changes and risk reduction strategies.
Promote recognition of risk reduction strategies.
Motivate the attitudinal changes needed for the development of a healthy brain lifestyle.

Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant with the weak and the wrong. Sometime in your life you will have been all of these.
