Research has shown that physical and social activity supports healthy brain aging. The study was published in the journal NeuroPicture.
The authors of the new study observed people over the age of 65 for seven years. They focused on the entorhinal cortex. This area is located in the inner part of the temporal lobe and plays a key role in learning and memory. It is one of the first to be affected by Alzheimer’s disease.
The study found that people who were more physically and socially active at the start of the study did not reduce entorhinal cortex thickness as much as older adults who were less active. The better the participants preserved the thickness of this area of the brain, the better their memories were.
It was also shown that those with good memories at the beginning of the study retained their memories better over the next seven years.
“These results support the idea that we have ‘cognitive reserve’ and that the brain can be trained like a muscle throughout life to prevent age-related decline. In other words, it is beneficial to be physically, mentally and socially active throughout our lives, including into old age,” the scientists said. , he said:
