“Hotter body, smarter cerebrum: Exercise offers a pretty sweet deal”.
Working out on a treadmill isn't just good for the body it is also good for the brain. Exercise changes the brain in ways that protect memory and thinking skills. It also helps you to have a better memory and problem solving skills after 50. Regular physical activity may stave off the risk for Alzheimer's disease, mild cognitive impairment or dementia. Those assigned to the exercise program had fewer symptoms of anxiety, irritability and depression – common burdens of Alzheimer's disease. In addition to improved physical fitness, a subgroup of the exercise group showed significant improvements in mental speed and attention.
Exercisers learn faster, remember more, think clearer and bounce back more easily from brain injuries, such as a stroke. Some of these brain benefits are thought to arise out of the mild stress that exercise induces, which triggers the brain to protect against neuron damage. In addition, it could just be an effect of blood flow. Physical exercise increases blood flow to the brain. Blood delivers nutrients and oxygen, and this may be a large part of why exercise increases cognitive function.
If you suffer from depression and anxiety, exercising will help you tremendously. Depression slows the brain’s ability to process information, makes it more difficult for us to concentrate and make decisions, and causes memory problems. Exercising may help lift your mood. It cranks up the body’s production of serotonin and dopamine, brain chemicals crucial to happy mood and it boosts your levels of the feel-good chemicals called endorphins.
