As we get older, it is thought physical activity helps prevent pathological aging and dementia. Animal models suggest that physical activity promotes growth of new neurons (through the expression of growth factors), cell survival, and synaptic plasticity, while human studies propose a more indirect method where physical activity is reducing cardiovascular risk factors. It has […]
