Aerobic exercise works on 2 levels. It is good for your body & great for your mind, according to the latest research from brain-fitness pioneer, Arthur Kramer. Consider this: the hippocampus, a region in your brain that is key to your memory, shrinks 1-2% every year as we age increasing the risk of dementia. However, Kramer's investigation reveals that the hippocampi of adults grew by 2% over a year simply by walking briskly 45 minutes a day 3 times a week. Thus, staving off age-related shrinking, it is never too late to start exercising. It doesn't need to be strenuous. Just anything that raises your heart rate seems to work. Walking is fine or anything you like to do. | |
