Brains of older people are slow because they
know so much.
People do not decline mentally with age, it
just takes them longer to recall facts because
they have more information in their brains,
scientists believe.
Much like a computer struggles as the hard
drive gets full, so too, do humans take longer
to access information when their brains are
full.
Researchers say this slowing down process is
not the same as cognitive decline.
The human brain works slower in old age,
but only because we have stored more
information over time.
The brains of older people do not get weak.
On the contrary, they simply know more.

Also, older people often go to another room to
get something and when they get there, they
stand there wondering what they came for.
It is NOT a memory problem, it is nature’s
way of making older people do more exercise.
SO THERE .
Now when I reach for a word or a name , I
won’t excuse myself by saying “I’m having a
senior moment”.
Now, I’ll say, “My disk is full!”
I have more friends I should send this to, but
right now I can’t remember their names.
So, please forward this to your friends; they
may be my friends, too.
