The Effect of Physical Activity on Cognition and the Brain in the Process of Aging

In this article, we investigate the effects of physical activity and fitness on brain health and cognitive functions, as well as the prevention of possible cognitive impairments in people who are in late adulthood and early age and maybe without impairment or with some degree of cognitive impairment. According to studies, high fitness and more physical activity lead to increased hippocampal volume, periphrontal cortex, and basal nuclei.
