隨著年齡增長(zhǎng)，人類大腦的記憶力會(huì)逐漸下降，持續(xù)的壓力和不健康的生活方式也會(huì)讓你的記憶力提前衰退。如果不懂得給大腦“保鮮”，就算是神仙記憶法也拯救不了你。用什么科學(xué)方法可以有效地改善你的記憶力？這些方法可以試試看。

Sharpen your brain with mnemonic devices
使用助記設(shè)備使大腦更敏銳

Mnemonic devices are techniques that a person can use to help them retain information better. And according to recent studies, they can help improve your brain. This is because it essentially acts like brain training and forces it to work and generate new cognitive network connections. So go on ahead and adapt mnemonic practices whenever possible.

助記設(shè)備可以幫助你更好地記住信息。新近的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，助記設(shè)備有助于改善大腦功能。這是因?yàn)樗举|(zhì)上和大腦訓(xùn)練一樣，通過(guò)迫使大腦工作，使其生成新的認(rèn)知網(wǎng)絡(luò)聯(lián)系。因此你可以多多使用助記設(shè)備。

Exercise regularly
定期運(yùn)動(dòng)

That’s right, we mean physical exercise. Per research, leading a sedentary lifestyle can also lead to memory loss. So put on those trainers, go outside and start working up a good sweat. It’s healthy for both your mind and your body.

是的，我們指的是體育鍛煉。研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，久坐的生活方式也會(huì)導(dǎo)致記憶力喪失。因此，穿上運(yùn)動(dòng)鞋，到戶外大汗淋漓地運(yùn)動(dòng)吧。定期運(yùn)動(dòng)對(duì)你的身心健康都有益。

Play video games
玩電子游戲

Yes, you heard us. Get on that controller and spend a couple of hours playing your favorite video game. It’s good for your mind, according to a recent study that illustrated how these pastimes can help improve the functioning of various memory-associated regions in the brain. But don’t go overboard, too much of a good thing can be bad for you.

你沒聽錯(cuò)，拿起遙控器，花幾個(gè)小時(shí)來(lái)玩自己喜歡的電子游戲吧。最近的一項(xiàng)研究表明，打游戲有助于改善大腦中與記憶相關(guān)的各個(gè)區(qū)域的功能，對(duì)大腦有益。但要把握好度，游戲打多了反而會(huì)有壞處。

Eat your vegetables
多吃蔬菜

This is a no-brainer since it’s a well-known fact eating vegetables can help keep you and your body healthy, and that includes your brain. Various research papers stating that fruits and vegetables can help lower oxidative stress in your brain as well as help retain healthy cognitive functions.

這是一個(gè)明擺著的事實(shí)。眾所周知，多吃蔬菜可以使你的身體保持健康，包括你的大腦。多篇研究論文指出，水果和蔬菜可以幫助降低大腦的氧化壓力，并有助于大腦保持健康的認(rèn)知功能。

oxidative [,ɑks?'det?v]: adj. 氧化的

Reduce stress levels
減輕壓力

Per research, intense and persistent stress, especially at high levels, can easily impair our memory and disrupt our cognitive skills. So slow down, and ease yourself into taking it down a notch. You can do this by meditating, taking a walk or by incorporating mindfulness-based stress reduction methods.

研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，強(qiáng)烈而持久的壓力，尤其是高水平壓力，很容易損害我們的記憶力和破壞我們的認(rèn)知能力。所以你應(yīng)該放慢節(jié)奏，讓自己悠著點(diǎn)兒。你可以通過(guò)冥想、散步或正念減壓療法來(lái)減壓。
