NEW YORK, Oct. 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- CogniFit, a leading developer of online brain training and cognitive programs, announces the release of its online brain fitness platform in Brazilian and Portuguese adding two new languages. The CogniFit brain fitness platform is now available in more than 30 geographies in 7 different languages including English, Spanish, French, Italian, German, Brazilian and Portuguese consolidating its position as a global leader in the brain fitness industry.

The capacity to assess and train our brain health is one of the most important abilities we possess. In an aging society, a growing number of individuals are looking for solutions to remain cognitively fit. The demand for health and wellness products is also soaring across age groups. Thus, offering a global platform is a key element for a healthy and more productive lifestyle for individuals around the world.

Carlos Rodriguez, Chief Technology Officer at CogniFit, explains: "Our aim is to help individuals across the globe to better understand their current cognitive state and provide them with the tools to improve their brain health and emotional state. Continuing the roll out of the CogniFit platform and brain games to new geographies helps us satisfy that implicit demand."

Research has shown that training cognitive abilities can bring valuable benefits to the trainees for a large variety of needs, which may, in turn, be instrumental in improving quality of life. For example, people with serious cognitive deficit have a tendency to procrastinate at work, be less optimistic and feel less confident. They may experience stress, anxiety and depression as a result of their inability to perform satisfactorily.   

The CogniFit brain fitness platform assesses and trains a wide selection of cognitive abilities such as short-term memory, eye-hand coordination and focus. The platform is free to use and users can add specific applications to their training for as low as $4.99.
