How do you loose your memory?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Poor health & injury: Abusing alcohol daily for a long time and using illicit drugs can cause memory loss. Head injuries can also result in memory loss. Studies have shown that people who eat healthy and exercise regularly along with doing mentally demanding tasks are less likely to develop alzheimer's disease which causes memory loss usually in older age.
