A series of recent studies has pinpointed the specific molecules and biological pathways through which physical activity protects the brain from aging, disease, and toxic protein buildup. Researchers ...

A UCSF team finds a liver protein, released with exercise, that improves memory in aging and Alzheimer’s disease by repairing ...

A new study shows exercise releases a liver enzyme that repairs aging brain blood vessels and restores memory in mice.

A study finds that people who did one specific form of brain training in the 1990s were less likely to be diagnosed with dementia over the next 20 years.

Physical activity supports the same brain systems targeted in clinical treatment”— Dr. Stanford Owen GULFPORT, LA, ...

Exercise may sharpen the mind by repairing the brain’s protective shield. Researchers found that physical activity prompts the liver to release an enzyme that removes a harmful protein causing the ...

Researchers found that regularly following the exercise regimen for a year led to participants’ brains appearing nearly a ...

A study in the Alzheimer's Association research journal found that simple brain speed exercises were linked to lowering the ...

A long-running study following thousands of older adults suggests that a relatively brief period of targeted brain training ...

Adults who exercised regularly for a year had brains that appeared nearly a year younger on MRI scans. Protecting brain health is a lifelong effort, and new findings from the AdventHealth Research ...

The work reveals that the brain — in mice and, presumably, in humans — is actively involved in the development of endurance, the ability to get better at a physical activity with repeated practice, ...
