A US long-term study shows that 5000 steps a day slow the accumulation of fatal dew protein in the brain.
A scientific research published in early November in Nature Medicine magazine determined how many steps should be taken a day to slow cognitive deterioration in older adults at higher risk of developing Alzheimer's disease.Previously, other health-related studies had concluded that physical activity is one of the best ways to reduce the risk of this diagnosis.However, the new work includes some additional edges.

There is no need to run marathons or spend hours in the gym to care for the brain. Science is beginning to show that daily activities, such as walking at a moderate pace, could have a real impact on how our mind ages.A new study by Mass General Brigham Hospital (USA) points in that direction: even a modest amount of steps a day could delay early signs of Alzheimer's disease in people at high risk. Research, recently published in JAMA Neurology, …
Study finds 5,000 steps per day could slow cognitive decline for individuals with signs of Alzheimer’s
A study published today by Nature found that as many as 5,000 steps per day can slow cognitive decline for individuals with early signs of Alzheimer’s disease. Researchers followed nearly 300 adults with no cognitive impairment for up to 14 years, giving them cognitive assessments and brain scans during the study period for any signs of the disease. Researchers said individuals with more physical activity slowed accumulation of tau protein, thus…
