Staving off Alzheimer's

I thought I had seen a submission at one time about Lumosity.com, but I searched and couldn’t find one. Which leads me to the point of my submission: I’m getting old and losing my mind!
 
I used to have a near photographic memory, but I’m losing it fast, and since I hit 40 it’s been slipping away at an alarming rate. Having heard that people who keep their brains active as they get older are less likely to get senile, I decided to step up the amount of puzzles and brain teasers that I do.
 
Not too long ago, I discovered (or perhaps rediscovered? I could swear I had heard of it before) Lumosity.com. It bills itself as “A fast, fun and effective way to take care of your brain.” And it’s developed by “leading scientists”! What more could you want? The leading scientists are mostly neuroscientists from Stanford and UCSF, and Lumos Labs is in San Francisco, so maybe some of you San Franciscans are already familiar with Lumosity, or even have the leading scientists over for your glamorous and intellectual dinner parties.
