Brain-Boosting Site of the Week

by WiredBerries Readers — April 16, 2007

Increasingly, scientific research is demonstrating that you can keep your mind in tiptop shape by challenging it with new activities as you grow older. Now along comes a website dedicated to building brain reserves through a series of entertaining and challenging games. Developed by a pair of French neuroscientists, Happy-neuron.com offers word and number puzzles and allows you to track your progress in five critical areas deemed important for reducing the risk of Alzheimer’s and dementia. You can sign up for a seven-day free trial; after that, it’s $9.95 a month or $99.95 a year.
