"But the report shows that the picture need not be quite so grim if more people:-
exercised, tick
stopped smoking, tick, never did
and controlled their blood pressure." one magic tablet a day does it
but my short term memory is still getting worse - I still cannot remember people's names, telephone numbers and street names that I just looked up - just like my Mum in her later life
I bought a book on improving my memory

if only I could remember where I put it?
