Non-Pharmacological Interventions for Enhancing Brain Plasticity and Promoting Brain Recovery: A Review

Le résumé fourni par la source

Despite the incredible advancements made in the field of neuroscience, neurodegenerative disorders arising from the pathological forms of neural plasticity, continue to remain the primary cause of increased death rate. While significant progress has been made in the introduction of novel pharmacological approaches for treating neurodegenerative disorders, minimizing the unpleasant adverse effects associated with these medications, still remains a far-fetched dream. This has led to numerous pre-clinical and clinical studies that have accumulated considerable amount of evidence, supporting the effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions for slowing the progression of a wide range of neuropsychiatric disorders. The primary objective of this review is to provide scientific evidence on the efficacy of non-pharmacological interventions like environment enrichment, cognitive stimulation therapy, physical exercise, social interactions, dietary modifications and relaxation techniques that can be in co-operated in your lifestyle for preventing and reversing age-associated cognitive decline. It emphasizes the importance of adapting a combinatorial approach and utilizing the potential of both, drug-based and non-drug based therapies for managing the symptoms of neurodegenerative disorders, since these conditions are caused by an interplay between genetic and environmental factors.
