The connection between physical movement and brain function has emerged as one of neuroscience’s most significant discoveries. The human brain, despite representing only 2% of body weight, consumes ...

It is proven that physical exercise supports a healthy body and mind. What is increasingly becoming popular is that certain types of movement, apart from shaping the body and also reshape the brain.

Exercise increases blood flow and oxygen to the brain, supporting memory and thinking. Strength training may enhance cognitive performance and slow brain degeneration. Aim for 30-45 minutes of ...

A brain exercise a day might keep you current—it might even revive your brain chemistry. In a landmark clinical trial led by McGill University, researchers discovered that ten weeks of brain training ...

When it comes to brain healthy exercise, cardio is the way to go. A neurologist shares his own running routine to stay in tip top shape. While heart health has been a large focus for some time, there ...

A team at the University of California, San Francisco has identified a specific liver-produced enzyme that explains, at the molecular level, how physical exercise protects the aging brain from ...

In a new study, people who followed a moderate-to-vigorous aerobic exercise routine for a year had a noticeable drop in brain age, while those who stuck to their usual fitness routine saw a slight ...

Exercise strengthens both the body and the mind, and researchers are uncovering the molecular messengers that make the connection. The messengers can also be transferred from an active mouse to a ...

It’s no secret that regular exercise benefits the body. But scientists say it may also improve your brain to the point where it appears younger. At least that’s the key takeaway from a recent study ...

With age comes a natural decline in cognitive function, even among otherwise healthy adults without dementia. A new study finds that a cognitive training program may boost production of a brain ...
