Your brain could be 'older' than your age—and it's easier than ever to find out Read more about Your brain could be 'older' than your age—and it's easier than ever to find out Is your brain aging faster than your chronological age? New research shows it could raise your risk of death and dementia significantly—and offers promise for early intervention.
