[originaltext] Many people worry about memory loss. It’s normal to lose memo

Many people worry about memory loss. It’s normal to lose memory as you get older. Research on the brain and memory is a huge area these days. Doctors are looking for ways to help people improve their memory and possibly prevent loss.
    Today on the show, we’re looking at one program to help memory, called The Boot Camp for the Brain. It’s a two-week program developed by a psychiatrist named Gary Small. His program combines four elements: a special diet, daily physical activity, stress relieving exercises and, of course, memory exercises. (33)Dr. Small claims that this combination can improve your brain’s function.
    Michele Rubin is one of Dr. Small’s success stories. Rubin is a 46-year-old mother. At the start of the program, her memory tested as average for her age. When she took memory tests after the program, (34)her memory was equal to a 20-year-old-person. Since the program, in addition to exercising more and improving her diet, she has started using memory strategies, reading non-fiction and doing crossword puzzles. She also helps her children with their math homework as a way to work her brain.
    Dr. Small emphasizes that this study was very small and that a larger study is needed. But, he still feels that the results are important. (35)Other scientists say they are cautiously optimistic about Small’s approach. They feel more research is needed, but say it’s possible that The Boot Camp for the Brain could delay serious memory problems.
    People who have participated in the program believe that it has definitely helped their memory.
    So, if you’re worried about your memory, The Boot Camp for the Brain might be worth looking into.
