1. Your Brain On Exercise
An accessible, evidence-based overview of how regular physical activity benefits the brain throughout life—boosting memory, attention and mood, lowering anxiety and depression, and reducing risk of cognitive decline—by increasing blood flow, stimulating neurogenesis and growth factors like BDNF, balancing neurotransmitters, and reducing inflammation; the book synthesizes animal and human research and offers practical guidance on types, intensity and frequency of exercise to maximize cognitive resilience and help protect against age-related and Alzheimer’s-related decline.
