The shocking effects that exercise has on the human brain

What if I told you there was something you could do right now, which would have a positive immediate effect on your brain, including your focus and mood status. What if I told you that this effect was long-term and I could protect your brain from diseases like depression or Alzheimer's? Would you?

These are the questions Wendy A. Suzuki, professor of Neuro Science and Psychologicality at the Neural Science Centre at New York University, leads its audience.

During numerous research and job research, says the professor, there was no more social life and no physical activity. She won about 11 kilos. She realized only after a sports trip that her condition was not well and decided that she would no longer be the most helpless person on the journey. So he decided to lose his excess weight. He started trying the gym, yoga, and dancing and so on until he succeeded. In addition to the smallest weight, however, Wendy began to discern other changes in her work environment. She was more focused, she remembered better, and for this reason she decided to find out what scientific research is about brain connection and exercise and then study for herself. She discovered that exercise is the most important form of transformation that man can make for his brain.

Its conclusions are these:

) Exercise gives short (immediate) and long-term effects (if exercise becomes part of your lifestyle):

Any Training Has an Effect short term, immediate in our brain: better mood, better energy, better memory, better focus. These are for several reasons:

#1

It has a direct effect on the brain. A single exercise session will increase your neurotransmitters' levels, such as dopamine, serotonin and noradrenaline. This will make you better after training. The focus you get only from a training session will last for at least two hours.

#2

Training also increases the time of reaction, which means you'll catch that glass you see falling to the ground.

These are just immediate effects, coming directly after an exercise, but try to change your regime and do it regularly. These effects will be Long-term, After exercising changes the anatomy of the brain, the physiology and the function:

#1

Exercise produces new cells in the hippocampus, increasing its volume and improving your long-term memory. Hippocampus is a critical structure that shows man's ability to bear long - term memories of facts and events.

#2

Improve the functioning of attention or focus, depending on the prefrontal framework, critical of decision making, focus, attention and personality of someone.

#3

The mood also improves on a long-term level, as rising levels of neurotransmitters grow longer.

#4

Brain protection effects: Think of your brain as a muscle. The stronger the hippocampus and the prefrontal cortex, the better you feel.

It's not as if everyone should be athletes to have these effects. 3-4 times a week for minimum 30 minutes, including performing aerobic exercises that increase your heart rate is enough. You don't even have to spend on gyms. Just keep moving. Add a walk around the neighborhood. See stairs up.
