A new study finds young adults with obesity show early signs of brain cell damage, similar to patterns seen in older adults with cognitive impairment.

Your breath holds the key to mental clarity
Shallow, erratic breathing directly impairs cognitive function, memory and focus, while increasing anxiety. A simple, five-minute diaphragmatic breathing technique practiced three times daily can dramatically improve mental clarity and reduce stress.
