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

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 ...

Researchers at UC San Francisco have discovered a mechanism that could explain how exercise improves cognition by shoring up ...

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, ...

Exercise can tone and improve most parts of your body, but what does exercise do to your brain? And does it help your mental ...

Adults who did regular aerobic exercise for a year had brains that appeared about one year younger on MRI scans than people ...

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

A study in the Alzheimer's Association research journal found that simple brain speed exercises were linked to lowering the risk of dementia by 26% at a 20-year follow-up.

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 ...

Researchers identify brain neurons that become active after exercise and help determine how much endurance improves with repeated training.

A 20-year follow-up of the ACTIVE study found that older adults who did speed-based cognitive training, especially with later ...
