As Third Agers, we’ve built a lifetime of incredible memories – cherished moments with family, triumphs over challenges, and the wisdom that comes with experience. But let’s face it, sometimes the names or details of those memories can slip away.
Keeping our minds sharp isn’t just about remembering birthdays or grocery lists; it’s about staying connected to the experiences that have shaped who we are and embracing the new experiences that lie ahead.
Let’s explore some helpful products to help you boost your memory and improve cognition.
Enhance Memory with TumericCBD
You know that I love natural products and CBD, and this is one of my favorites. This CBD solution contains 6000mg of Turmeric and 300mg of Full Spectrum CBD. Turmeric is a great way to relieve inflammation, reduce cholesterol, and so much more. This combination helps to not only relieve joint and muscle stiffness and support healthy blood sugar levels, but also to improve your focus and mood and even support memory and brain function. You can’t get a better supplement!

Speaking of a workout, moving your body can do a lot to help your brain health. It’s no secret that my favorite workout is yoga and for that you’ll always need a good mat.
