Exercise For The Brain
An article came out last weekend on a new study that found that exercise has a more positive effect on the brain the previously recognized. HD Lighthouse has the full article, check it out. If you haven't started an exercise program yet, now is the time to start. From the article:
“We found that the induction of BDNF in each age group rose significantly after one week of exercise,” says Cotman. When all the groups were tested with a task that is used to assess levels of depression, the old animals showed significant improvement. In fact, they performed as good as or even better at the task than the youngest animals."
