Weekly activity that 'slows down' brain ageing and cuts dementia risk

A new study found that one key weekly activity could be key to staving off cognitive decline and dementia.

Even Small Amounts of High Intensity Exercise Slow Brain Aging

The value of lower levels of physical activity has been one of the major themes of the past twenty years of research into the effects of exercise on long-term health. The advent of low-cost wearable accelerometer devices has enabled researchers to rigorously quantify differences for lesser amounts of physical activity, in order to get a much better look at the lower end of the dose-response curve for exercise. That leads to studies such as the o…
