When  I asked our developers to create a Cognitive Exercise Widget that can be shared from person to person over the web, that very afternoon it was done. When I expressed surprise, “It’s only software :-)!”  they told me.

So, click to play and forward to your friends for the joy of sharing. And, as always, tell us what you think.

I took an AOL poll this week and discovered that when offered a choice of three things that people do to reduce their risk of getting Alzheimer’s Disease, more people were inclined to play brain games than exercise or take supplements. If you consider brain games, check out the benefits of doing with coach guidance from Happy Neuron’s virtual scientist.

AOL Poll Question: What do you do to reduce your risk?

Play brain games                   39%
Take vitamin supplements      36%
Exercise                               25%

The “tip of the tongue” phenomenon just got a little more help. You’ll be pleased to learn that 25 new word categories and over 2,500 new words have been added to this addictive game. Click here to play now….

We continue to add more and more categories to this Language Cognitive Exercise all the time. If you have a favorite hobby or interest, why not let us know and we’ll look to add it.

Adding to the two books on the market (Dental Floss for the Mind and Get your Brain in the Fast Lane), Happy Neuron’s CEO, Michel Noir and Chief Scientist, Dr. Bernard Croisile, have brought another book to the market. This one is entitled Brocolli for the Brain. It’s published by McGrawHill and available at Borders, Barnes&Nobles and Amazon. So when you are off the internet-grid, you can still ensure you get your brain fitness workout. Enjoy!
