Alzheimer’s disease from an early age can be salvaged by engaging in complex coordinated sports such as rhythmic gymnastics, hockey and cycling from an early age. In an interview with the “Public News Service” about this said neurophysiologist Sergey Nurislamov.
“For example, rhythmic gymnastics for girls. It’s not bad for boys to master hockey, it’s not just an intricately coordinated movement, it’s situational. Here you can focus on the physiological classification of sports movements according to VS Farfel. You can sit on the bike – at least this is a balance training, ”Nurislamov explained.
Also, according to him, group team games, in which people constantly interact with each other, are useful. The specialist recommended Nordic walking, which increases the respiratory capacity of the lungs for older people and is the least traumatic.
Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of senile dementia. It usually takes years or even decades to develop. It is believed that a healthy diet, avoidance of bad habits, and adequate physical activity can reduce the likelihood of contracting this disease.
Previously, researchers at Murdoch University’s Center for Healthy Aging discoveredthat physical activity can offset some of the negative effects of insufficient sleep on memory and thinking. The results of the study were published in the journal Behavioral Brain Research.
