Three walks paused per week could be enough to drive a vital brain functions range, a study has been manifiesto.Las frontiers in neuroscience Aging, carried out in the United States research, assessed a "sedentary" adult 59-80 years old, who joined a group walk group.
What they found was that moderate exercise even - in this case, walking one own pace for 40 minutes three times a week: can improve important brain circuits connectivity, decreased brain function associated with ageing and increased performance on cognitive tasks combat.
In general, measured age, brain circuits and networks can be less connected, which can lead to a series of problems such as memory or "sharpness" cognitive decline decreased.
In particular, the actions of the elderly can be affected by the network by default (DMN), which dominates the brain activity when someone less is committed to the outside world, passively observed anything or simply daydreaming.
For example, other research has shown that people with Alzheimer's disease may show fewer DMN network activity.Meanwhile, in a healthy young brain activity in the DMN quickly decreases when a person is engaged in an activity that requires your attention.
A previous study also found that older adults who are more physically have better connectivity in certain regions of the DMN than those who are more sedentary.
How much Is Enough exercise to improve brain performance?
Up to now not known how much exercise could improve the DMN or other cerebro.Mientras that the new study, supported by the National Institute on aging in national health institutes also discussed a group test that took part in which extends and toning classes each week, it was found that the group walked at a pace moderated during 40 minutes three times per week trial showed improvement "sensitive" brain connectivity networks.
Research spokesman said: "this study shows that even moderate aerobic exercise improve coordination of greater importante.Cuanto brain networks is connectivity, improved performance on cognitive tasks, especially those who call the tasks of control of the Executive, such as planning, programming, deal with ambiguity, working memory and the multitarea.estas are skills very tend to diminish with aging".
There is now another reason, other than improving your cardiovascular health for lowering the sofa for a walk.
