“A Swedish-American team led by the Salk Institute’s Fred Gage recently found that adult human brains can and do grow new neurons thought life. This fits well with another recent study of U.C Berkleys professors which showed that cognitive abilities that usually decline with age – planning, organizing, and manipulating new information in terms of prior knowledge – are preserved in older professor s who continue to challenge themselves with demanding intellectual activity. So it’s time we accept the fact that on of the most fundamental claims of 20th-centry brain science - that adult brains can’t grow new neurons – is false. Adult brains do grow more new brain cells and connections between exciting cells in several ways. One is physical exercise. Another is good diet. A third is to enrich your environment with social contact and mental activities that are both fun and challenging” - Building Left-Brain Power: Conditioning Exercises and Tips for Left Brain Skills by Allen D.
