Brain News: Cognitive Decline May Start in Your 20s
It seems that brain function peaks around 22 years and begins to slowly shrink starting around 27 years. After 27 years, abstract reasoning, brain speed, and puzzle-solving all show signs of diminishing function, with the average memory decline beginning around 37 years. All is not lost though; vocabulary and general knowledge skills seem to increase until at least 60. Yay!

Jen, there’s no substitute for experience! Instead of wondering what to do and rationalizing it all out, experience tells you that the best predictor of the future is the past. Takes far less brain power and energy!
