Exercise Protects Aging Brains Better

Using the figure of between 50 and 100 trillion cells in an

adult human body, an average newborn's cell count could

be estimated in the range of 1 to 5 trillion cells. All the

neurons are covered in a layer called a myelin sheath.

Without this sheath the neuron will not function. As we

age, neurons lose their myelin sheaths. This leads to se-

nile dementia or Alzheimer‟s disease

Physical Activity Trumps Mental Activity,

Study Suggests WebMD Medical News By Salynn Boyles Reviewed by Louise Chang, MD Oct. 22, 2012

Staying mentally sharp as you age may have more to do with working out than working on

crossword puzzles, new research suggests. People who stayed physically active into old

age tended to have larger brains than those who did not exercise in the study, published

today in the journal Neurology. The brain typically shrinks in late adulthood, and this shrink-

age is believed to play a role in age-related memory decline. The new research is the latest

to suggest that exercise is good for the brain as well as the body.

“It is pretty clear that exercise is one of the most potent things we can do to protect our brain

as we age,” says University of Pittsburgh exercise and aging researcher Kirk Erickson, PhD,

who was not involved with the study.

Exercisers Had Larger Brains

The new research included about 700

people living in the United Kingdom who all

had brain scans when they reached the age

of 73.Three years earlier, at age 70, the

study participants were questioned about the

leisure and physical activities they engaged

in. People in the study who reported being

the most physically active tended to have larger brain volumes of gray and normal white

matter, and physical activity was linked to less brain atrophy. Regular exercise also ap-

peared to protect against the formation of white matter lesions, which are linked to thinking

and memory decline. Non-physical leisure activities did not appear to protect the brain from

shrinkage, suggesting that mental activity may be less important than regular exercise for

preserving brain function into old age, the researchers say. But researcher Alan J. Gow and

colleagues from the University of Edinburgh add that more research is needed to prove this. . . . . .►►►►

◄◄◄◄ …. Mental Decline Not Inevitable Erickson‟s latest research, presented this summer at the Alzheimer's Association Interna-

tional Conference in Vancouver, echoes Gow's research while suggesting that it‟s never

too late to protect the brain through exercise. Along with colleagues, he recruited 120 older

inactive adults with no evidence of dementia for his study. Half began a modest exercise

routine that included walking at a moderate pace for 30 to 45 minutes, three times a week.

The other half did stretching and toning exercises. A year later, MRI brain scans showed

that a key region of the brain involved with memory, known as the hippocampus, was

slightly larger in the walking group, while it has shrunk slightly in the non-aerobic stretching

group. While his study focused on aerobic exercise, others suggest that resistance training

also benefits the brain. Erickson says the accumulating research is changing the thinking

about how the brain ages.

“The old view is that as we get older our brains become less malleable and less able to

change,” he says. “The new view is that it remains plastic even very late in life. We were

able to show positive change after just one year of moderate-intensity physical activity.

”Orthopedic surgeon Vonda Wright, MD, who studies aging athletes, says it is a myth that

frailty and mental decline are inevitable in old age. Wright directs a performance program

for older athletes at the University of Pittsburgh and she is the author of the book Fitness

After 40. She points out that exercise has been shown to help prevent many diseases,

including diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and some cancers.

“It is never too late to harness our body‟s capacity to get stronger and more functional,” she

says. “There is no pill that can do what exercise does.”
