What is the Effect of Exercise on Cognitive Function?

Submitted by ameserole on Fri, 03/02/2018 - 12:33

A study was conducted on diet-induced obese mice, in which some mice remained obese, and some mice were exercising on a treadmill. It was found that in the mice that exercised, hippocampal neuroplasticity was increased, thus increasing cognitive function. This conclusion suggests that exercise can help to protect against obesity-induced cognitive impairment.
