So many look forward to their retirement.
After working hard your whole life, you've earned it. You've finally reached those twilight years and you can spend them however you want to. Just because you can loaf around and catch up on all the TV you've missed doesn't mean you should, though.A recent study has shown that retirement can have a dramatic impact on one of the most important parts of the body -- the brain. What that means for you is important information.
A study at University College London found that people, across all paygrades, started seeing a decline in cognitive function when they retired.
Participants' short term verbal memory dropped by about 38 percent faster when they stopped working.
"It makes it more likely that dementia will set in earlier,” Professor Cary Cooper, an expert in organizational psychology, told The Telegraph. “We know the more cognitively active you are the more it offsets the risk of dementia."
