Everyone knows that exercise is good for your body. But did you know that exercise can hold one of the keys to a happier, healthier brain? http://www.fix.com has created an infographic entitled “Your Brain on Exercise”, that lists some of the far-reaching benefits that regular exercise can hold for your grey matter.
When you exercise, your body gets healthy in more ways than one. While you may be running miles to fit into that little black dress, your exercise can also help improve your learning and mental performance, help prevent (and treat) dementia, Alzheimer’s, and brain aging, reduce stress and anxiety, and even help your brain maintain and regenerate cells.
Exercise is beneficial for every age. Undergrads discovered faster reaction times and a host of new vocabulary words – by running just 30 minutes a day. For physically active women 65 and up, exercise showed a reduction in the chances of developing cognitive disease. Aerobic training on its own has been proven to foster brain connectivity.
This infographic shows a host of other benefits that exercise can offer – whether you’re young or old.
