How can movement boost your brain health? Alzheimer's Association unveils new daily challenge

TL;DR

CBS Mornings and the Alzheimer's Association are collaborating on a series about brain health.
Nearly 90% of adults consider brain health important, but 91% don't know how to maintain it.
Lifestyle factors like nutrition, movement, sleep, and social connection impact brain health, according to the Alzheimer's Association.
The organization has developed a "6-Step Challenge" to guide users in making daily, actionable steps for brain health.
Increased physical activity is linked to better blood flow, cognition, mood, stress reduction, sleep, and a lower risk of dementia.
Movement can be incorporated through activities like walking, gardening, or dancing, aiming for 30-45 minutes several times a week.
More information and sign-up for the challenge are available at rethinkyourbrain.org.
