Exercise boosts brain health
From The Atlantic,
an article about the change
in how science views the relationship between exercise and brain health.
70-year-old Edgar Payson Weston walked from New York to San Francisco, taking
105 days to complete the trip. During that era, people believed exercise by
older people diminished their mental capacity, however, it turned out we
regenerate brain cells, so activity helps that regenerative process. The
article lists many studies reinforcing the benefits of exercise, especially
walking, on brain health.
