challenged in order to stimulate and even increase your intelligence, particulary as you grow older.

Yes I think intellectual stimulation is great especially as we get older. There are many herbal remedies out that claim to enhance the health of the brain. The following article was written by BBC
A combination of two ancient herbal remedies can dramatically boost brain power and may have applications in medicine, say scientists.
Researchers showed that ginkgo biloba can improve the power of concentration, while ginseng sharpens up the memory.
The effect was even more powerful if the two herbs were taken together.
The researchers believe the instant hit may help students to improve exam performance, and businessmen clinch a crucial deal.
They suggest the herbs may also be useful in treating neurological disorders - ginkgo is already used in some countries to treat Alzheimer's disease.

I agree 100%. I like to do crossword puzzles (even though I never finish them) and other puzzles that make you use your brain instead of things that are real easy.
