Imagine if all those games weren't a waste of time... but a workout for your brain ๐
1,203A new international study has revealed that playing video games and listening to music could help slow brain aging, even with short sessions. Yes, your gaming hobby could be better than a cup of green tea and a Sudoku puzzle combined ๐ต๐งฉ. Researchers at Trinity College analyzed more than 1,400 brains and discovered that creative activitiesโlike playing instruments, painting, or playing video gamesโkeep the brain younger and more active ๐ง โจ. Short gaming sessions boost memory, attention, and problem-solving, even in those just starting out. The surprising thing is that the effects are comparable to those of physical exercise or a good diet. ๐ช Scientists assure that you don't have to be a professional: creativity is the brain's gym, and video games are one of the most fun weights there are ๐ฎ๐ฅ. So the next time someone tells you you're wasting your time playing games, remind them that you're investing in your mental youth. ๐
