Listen up, gen-Xers and millennials, and, well, everybody who has a brain. If you live a high-stress life, you could have memory loss and brain shrinkage before you turn 50, according to a study published Wednesday in the journal Neurology. "Higher levels of cortisol, a stress hormone2, seem to predict brain function, brain size and performance on cognitive3 tests," said study author Dr. Sudha Seshadri, professor of neurology at UT Health San Antonio.
