You can grow new brain cells. Here's how

Adult brains grow new nerve cells; a game-changer in treating depression and improving memory, revealed through neurogenesis.

Running and a diet rich in omega-3, flavonoids, and low in saturated fat boost brain cell growth, enhancing mood and cognition.

Neurogenesis, influenced by lifestyle choices, holds keys to combating aging, stress, and cognitive decline, offering hope for vitality.
