Researchers at the Center for BrainHealth at the University of Texas-Dallas studied a group of 37 adults ages 57 to 75 with sedentary lifestyles.

Each participant was assessed before, after and halfway through the study on their overall cardiovascular fitness level and cerebral function. At all three checkpoints, the group that was physically active was found to have higher blood flow in the brain and also improved memory. Researchers attribute this to increased blood flow in certain regions of the brain, including the hippocampus — the region affected by Alzheimer’s.
