When a prominent Palm Beach resident received the diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment five years ago, she and her husband, a retired business executive, wanted to do something more than just live with the outcome. Their research led them to an experimental initiative in Boston, which was essentially a personalized workout program focused on the reduction of risk factors leading to Alzheimers disease.

This program, which helped slow the progression of her illness, is now the basis for a unique type of wellness program to launch in mid-March in West Palm Beach called The BrainHealth Club. It will be dedicated to promoting brain-health and holistic wellness. Based upon the latest scientific advances for enhancing the mind and body, The BrainHealth Club, located on the MorseLife Health System campus, will accommodate up to 200 members per year and provide each member with a unique, custom-designed program to improve brain function and promote overall wellness. Unlike any other facility, The BrainHealth Club offers members an integrated approach to wellness that includes brain training, exercise, diet and nutrition coaching, and control of metabolic and vascular risk factors.

The BrainHealth Club was founded by two entrepreneurs who assembled a team of leading experts in neurology, neuropsychology, nutrition, Alzheimers prevention and physical training who serve on the companys Scientific Advisory Board.

Dr. Carl Sadowsky, an Advisory Board member and leading neurologist and medical researcher in West Palm Beach states, Through our new program, BrainHealth Club members will benefit from the latest advances in science that may reduce the negative impacts of aging.

Dr. Sadowsky asserts that the scientific evidence behind The BrainHealth Club has shown to slow the progression of cognitive impairment and might even reduce the chance of Alzheimers and dementia through interventions to eliminate risk factors.

The program starts with a comprehensive assessment that includes cognitive, physical, cardio vascular, and diet to determine the members BrainHealth Index (BHI) score. This proprietary index score is the basis for creating a plan tailored to each members needs. The core of the program is based upon the Finnish Geriatric Intervention Study to Prevent Cognitive Impairment and Disability (FINGER Study), which identifies five critical elements that together could help impact neuroplasticity, the brains ability to adapt to new experiences.

Dr. Sadowsky and The BrainHealth Club team designed the clubs regimen to incorporate the key elements of the FINGER Study, starting with a personalized exercise program. Overseen by an exercise physiologist, the program uses specialized cardio equipment along with other fitness and activity programs, such as Tai Chi, yoga, gardening and painting. The other elements include the following:

According to Keith Myers, President and CEO of MorseLife Health System, the launch of The BrainHealth Club on the campus of the nonprofit senior care organization represents a perfect fit for the needs of the community.

As a strategic organization, we consistently strive to fill gaps in care identified in our service area, which is why we established an innovative Memory Care Assisted Living program last year, he said. Our hope is that someday there will be no need for our memory care programs, but with no cure for Alzheimers, even in the near future, an outcome-oriented program such as The BrainHealth Club is going to make some serious headway in prevention. We are thrilled to serve as the launching ground for this innovative program.

According to Dr. Sadowsky, The BrainHealth Club is appropriate for most individuals, especially those who may find themselves at risk of Alzheimers disease and to those in the early stages of diagnosis with cognitive impairment.
