Answers:
We actually start to lose irreplaceable brain cells very early in life!. Many people however continue to add to their knowledge base right up until the very end of life, though some of their cognitive functions may slow or DETERIORATE, especially spelling!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There is no defined age!. Many factors are thought to contribute to memory and loss of cognitive function eg brain damage due to substance abuse, pollutants & contaminants, build up of plaque inside vessels, prolonged exposure to extreme stress, sedentary lifestyle or even hereditary predisposition!.
There are cases of dementia setting in as early as 30 and there are people who have no loss of function in their 80's!.

Oh I misunderstood the question!. It is said that the human brain is not fully developed until 25 and after this it starts to decline!. I think this is a bit eroneous though as we keep learning and changing as every stage of life requires us to keep learning, adjusting and growing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i would think once u stop learning things, it all depends on how ur family line is and pretty much base it off one of ur ancestors for lasting of life really!. more then likely the typical age to start forgetting things that happen would probably be in ur mid 70s to 80s and 90s!. it just all depends on how ur ancestor line had of life more or less probably!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

well i would say once you stop learning or trying new things!.
i don't know, though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

When you start drinking!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

there is no way to predict that as it is not a guarantee it will happenWww@Answer-Health@Com
