Researchers in Australia have found molecular signals that could aid in the delivery of the neurological advantages of exercise in the form of a tablet. The researchers from Australian National University (ANU) disclosed that they have found chemical signals that occur in the body during exercise in a paper released on Wednesday.
The discovery could allow scientists to "bottle up" the benefits of exercise in the form of a pill, according to Riccardo Natoli, main author of the study and head of ANU's Clear Vision Research Lab.
He claims that the supplement, which is taken like a vitamin, will transmit the molecular message of exercise to people who aren't physically capable, such as those with neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, and may even delay the disease's course.
"Our ability to move and reap the benefits of exercise decreases as we age. If you lose your vision due to disorders like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, or age-related macular degeneration, it's extremely difficult to keep a consistent exercise routine "He told the publications of Nine Entertainment. If the tablet is created effectively in the future, researchers believe it should not be made available to the general public and should instead be reserved for patients who have limited mobility.
