People who regularly participate in brain-stimulating activities such as reading books and newspapers or doing crossword puzzles are less likely to develop Alzheimer's disease than those who do not. Engaging in leisure-time physical activity during midlife and having a large social network are associated with a decreased risk for Alzheimer's disease in later life.
