Take years off your brain. Exercise is linked to a lower risk of Alzheimer's disease among older people; now, new research shows it can prevent brain fog at a much younger age too. Japanese researchers assigned sedentary young adults to two groups; one took aerobic exercise classes, and the other did not. After 4 months, MRIs revealed that the non exercising group experienced shrinkage of grey matter in some areas of their brain, while the active participants had no change.

Hello Osama,
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear that your mom suffers from blood pressure.
The USA is known for our unhealthy diets and lack of exercise. We actually have the biggest problem with obesety than any other country in the world.
Your right Osama! Lack of exercise and not eating a healthy diet full of fresh friuts, veggies and whole grain products, while limiting meat consumption
contributes to many diseases.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend!
Lydia
Hello Boris,
ReplyDeleteYour very welcome! Thank you for the complement!
A healthy life style full of healthy foods and exercise is the way I enjoy living.
I try to get my kids and hubby to do the same.
My children love to eat junk food, so I no longer buy it. It's only an occassional treat for them now.
I am replacing their junk food favorites for healthier ones.
wishing you a wonderful weekend!
Lydia
