Our brains are the most incredible instruments. They take about 20% of the body's resources and, like the body, they can be either abused or maintained at a level of high health. The number of years we spend on this earth doesn't mean we all have the same wear and tear on our brains. This test is designed to find out, by some cues, if your brain is more worn than you are, or perhaps actually in better condition than the rest of you!

Your brain is 10 years older than you.
You love living the good life! We think it's great that you enjoy good food and drinks and you don't ruin the party by insisting that you need 8 hours of sleep. However, we think it might be a good idea to balance that with some exercise or supplements, because at the moment your brain is aging much faster than you. So keep living it up, because your life sounds awesome!
Your brain is 5 years older than you.
You are clearly someone who enjoys the finer things in life, but you also know how to do damage control. You eat good food, but make sure to get plenty of exercise and a healthy dose of vitamins. Even though you're doing great, you might want to put more effort into keeping everything balanced. At the moment your brain is aging just a tad faster than you. We suggest eating more anti-oxidant rich berries or getting a bit more sleep, they really do a body good!
Your brain is the same age as you are.
Wow, you clearly know how to stay healthy! Your life is in the perfect balance between living well and living healthy! Keep rocking those amazing eating and exercise habits, because you're an inspiration to the rest of us.
Your brain is 10 years younger than you.
Being healthy is obviously a huge priority in your life. You're on top of your eating habits, exercise patterns, and you even do extra things like take vitamins and do word puzzles. Your brain is aging slower than the rest of you, which means that you can probably look forward to a long life with all your mental faculties intact. Good job!
Your brain is 15 years younger than you.
We can't even handle how healthy your brain is! We don't know how you manage to do it all: eat right, exercise, take supplements, do puzzles, and get your beauty sleep. Your brain is aging slower than the rest of your body, which means that you can look forward to a long healthy life with a good memory and a sharp wit. You clearly have a thing or two to teach the rest of us about keeping fit!
