[quote=Anonymous]There is something called neuroplasticity and I think it is important to exercise our brains all the time. Keep the synapses firing and connecting even in old age. I had a talk with my mom about this just the other day. My dad suffered from vascular dementia, and mom is very overweight and not very active at all. She doesn't read of write much at all. I told her she needs to keep active, go to the book club, etc.. She replied that surely it is enough for her and her brain doesn't need anything and can rest. What I saw was in my head a 100kg woman that will have dementia and all that it involves, loss of movement, bowel, etc... I hope I am wrong. I am in grad school and almost 50, trying my best to keep my brain working. And to heat healthily, but who knows, luck of the draw sometimes, right? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELpfYCZa87g[/quote]
