Reading improves the memory
How can you improve your memory? There is no miraculous answer. The secret is to exercise your mind. And one of the best ways to do that is by reading. Why is this? When a person reads a word, like "tree", in that instant all the trees that he has known throughout his life pass though his subconcious mind. This type of mental activity may make the brain less suceptible to diseases such as Alzheimers. The more we use our memory, the longer we will keep it.
As tempting as it may be... I am NOT looking... I will use that at my mantra throughout this exercise... please excuse if I am totally off!
Read an old memory What is an old memory? Don´t wait. The secret is to put to work the mind and the best form of doing that is reading. Why? In the instant in which the person stops reading a :::, what tree, in:::, second they pass through everything the trees knew in life. Everything is in the subconscious. The end of mental activity makes the mind less susceptible to the disease of Alzheimers. How much more we use the memory, the more we converse.

Reading improves your memory
How can you improve your memory? You don't have to wait for a miracle. The secret is to put your brain to work, and one of the best ways to do that is reading. Why? The moment after a person reads a word, like tree, in a fraction of a second all of the trees they've ever seen flash through their mind. All of this is subconscious. This type of mental activity may make the brain less susceptible to diseases like Alzheimer's. The more we use our memory, the more of it we retain.
Without intending to "rain on your parade", I am unconvinced that there is any causal connection between "exercising" one's memory and delaying/avoiding Alzheimer's. The basis of my opinion is personal/anectdotal. My mother was for much of her adult life a "Professor of English"in a university [and for several years the chairman {she never said "chairwoman, much less, "chairperson" } of the English department]. She could (when appropriate) quote Beowulf or of various various Latin poets and enjoyed dong the crossword puzzles in the London times.
Nonetheless, At present, she recognizes neither of her sons (nor anyone else, for that matter) .
I tend to suspect that the benefit of continued study is not that it delays/prevents dementia but that it provides short term satisfaction (one's sense of progress).
