Neurologist and psychiatrist Polina Vakhromeyeva stated that approximately 30% of people aged 25–35 experience memory weakness and attention deficit.
Medianews.az reports that according to the doctor, the main reason for memory problems in young people is attention disorder and excessive information overload in daily life.
Stress, insomnia, and lack of rest burden the nervous system and weaken the brain's ability to retain new information.
Moreover, chronic emotional stress causes an increase in the cortisol hormone. This negatively affects the hippocampus region, which is important for memory.
The doctor also noted that smoking, alcohol, improper nutrition, and deficiencies in B group vitamins, vitamin D, iron, and other microelements also intensify memory problems.
