Studies have shown that there is health benefits derived from working crossword puzzles, because your brain needs regular playtime to form new patterns and complex neural networks naturally.

Alzheimer's disease is a degenerative disease of the brain cells that results in memory loss. It leads to dementia that affects the functions of the brain associated with speech, language, decision-making, judgment, thinking, and perception.

Crossword puzzles are tools giving users a rigorous mental workout. Scientists have found the neurological equivalent of an un-toned body could lead to a drastic dulling of cerebral powers. Improved Focus and AttentionScientists have found that the brain actually reorganizes itself in response to new challenges, and a crossword puzzle provides such a challenge. Solving puzzles improve focus and attention. Finding solutions requires a certain amount of solitude without distraction and with concentrated attention.Increased Mental StimulationCognitive stimulation occurs while doing puzzles. To complete a word puzzle, one must read the words to solve the puzzle. Puzzles require brain exertion (exercise). A puzzle helps stimulate brain thinking and memory, as well as brain activity. Thus, working puzzles can increase mental stimulation. The brain is resilient and malleable, so people can slow down the progression of dementia and increase their cognitive ability by stimulating brain activity. One way is to do so is to work word puzzles because they involve hunting and comparing words, spelling, logic of space and placement, and rational thinking.Improved MemoryWord puzzles have been proven to stimulate memory. When the puzzle solver tries a possible solution and it does not work, they need to remember the wrong attempt so that they do not retry a wrong answer.Many studies have shown that individuals who regularly do crosswords and similar activities have improved memory.

A person's IQ derives from measuring problem solving abilities, memory, general knowledge, and spatial imagery. The average God-given IQ of an adult is 150. It cannot be increased by medical science, because of the microbiology of the brain. The average effective(day-to-day) IQ is only 100-110, mostly due to neglect, lack of brain exercises. The goal is to keep effective IQ as high as possible and working puzzles can help. Contrary to popular belief, a human brain is capable of growth (effective IQ) and change throughout life.
