Research being conducted by Arthur Kramer at the University of Illinois have concluded that regular aerobic exrecise improves mental function and prevents cognitive decline.  He and his colleagues divided people who were 60 to 80 years old into two groups.  The first group did aerobic exercise – mostly brisk walking – for 45 minutes a day, three days a week.  The second group just did stretching and toning exercisees.  After 6 months they found a significant increase in the volume of brain cells in the prefrontal, temporal and parietal regions of the brain and hippocampus in the aerobic exercise group compared to the other group.  That’s just one more reason to include exercise in your holistic wellness program, along with diet and supplementation.  For a reliable source of supplementation products click here.
