Comment on Heavy multitaskers have reduced memoryparent

Comments

I'm not sure if it's age, alcohol use, stress, always-on internet, genetics, or what, but now I'm lucky if I can remember what task I'm in the middle of if I start thinking about something else while doing it

It might be something simple. I was having similar problems. It turned out I needed B12 supplements.

Seconding the supplement option.

A good, balanced supplement routine (or diet adjustment, but that's a lot more commitment) and starting the day with useful memory games (i.e five or so Duolingo challenges) has improved my memory, both short and long term, significantly.
