Three great memory boosters for a feel-younger summer

1. Warm up to a new sport A recent study from Columbia University Medical Center links blood glucose levels that rise as we age to memory lapses. Try a fun summer sport, like beach volleyball or swimming, to help your body regulate blood sugar.

2. Grab a page-turner. Reading decreases your risk of developing mild memory loss by 30 to 50 percent, so don’t forget to toss a great book in your beach bag.

3. Order the iced coffee Chill with three cups of caffeinated java a day and you could lower your risk of developing dementia by up to 70 percent, according to a study from the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease.
