If you want to naturally improve your memory, improve your mood and slow down aging, follow only one advice: move as much as possible.
Any exercise that speeds up the pulse and encourages you to move and sweat is good for your health, and therein lies the "secret" of youth.
Exercising will improve your mood already after the first training session, but for a positive effect on the brain and memory ability, you will still have to make an effort and exercise regularly.
It would be best if you had some aerobic activity for forty minutes every day, writes the British "Independent".
Wondering what aerobic training is? It is a type of training that encourages our body to burn fat and use it for energy production. These processes are stimulated by physical activity that does not require too much muscle effort - walking, swimming, climbing stairs...
Scientists have studied the effect of aerobic exercise on the brain of patients undergoing chemotherapy, which can sometimes result in memory loss and reduced ability to concentrate.
It turned out that the subjects who exercised felt less tired, and they also solved the tests that were given to them better. In addition, aerobic exercises are good "therapy" against depression and anxiety.
Such a positive effect of aerobic exercises on the brain is explained by improved circulation, due to which the brain receives more oxygen, reports mondo.
