Physical exercise and mental activity are good for brain health as we age, helping to keep thinking sharper and to delay dementia.
July 21, 2022 -- Now a new study says that some benefits of exercise are more pronounced for women than they are for men.
As little as 15 minutes a week of brisk walking or biking can help people think more quickly and also slow the delay in processing speed that older people often experience,reported. Playing cards, reading books, and other mental activities are also helpful for processing speed in men and women alike, researchers found.
In the study, 758 people described their mental and physical activities. Some had signs of cognitive impairment or dementia while others did not have any problems with thinking or memory.
