Answer to Question 1

Answer: Brain-engaging activities such as completing crossword puzzles, reading books, playing a musical instrument, or playing cards not only help prevent cognitive decline overall, but slow memory loss among those who have already developed dementia. The key to beneficial activities lies in their interactivity.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Osteoarthritis often arises from a mix of genetic factors and damaging force, such as injury, repetitive motion, or excessive body weight. In people with osteoarthritis, cartilage wears away in the hands and weight-bearing joints of the body, such as the knees, hips, and ankles.
