Sequel to Health as Human Capital in Economics

Active social life may delay memory loss:
Harvard School of Public Health researchers have found evidence that older adults in the US who have active social lives may have a slower rate of memory decline. My comment: Active intellectual life may help brain to work better as I do.
Data for the study was gathered from 1998 to 2004 from the Health and Retirement Study - a large nationally representative population of US adults age 50 and over. Social participation i.e. integration was measured by evaluating marital status: volunteer activities such as blogging and contact with children or grandchildren. Results showed people with the highest social integration has the slowest rate of memory decline. In fact, among the most socially integrated older adults, memory declline was less than half the rate of those least integrated. Dementia can be avoided by daily blogging to exercise the brain all the time.
