My first attempt at posting a random neuro factoid every day for a year didn't go very far. I made it for 16 days, to be more precise. In all honesty, I severely underestimated how demanding starting a new role would be.
But I finally feel more settled and ready to give it another shot and see how far I can get this time. So attempt #2 starts here.
Day 1: Engaging in physical activity is one of the best things you can do for your brain health. Working out improves processing speed, learning capacity, and memory. It tends to decrease depressive symptoms and improve mood. And it has indirect effects on brain health by helping with stress reduction, potentially being a social activity, helping you make healthier food choices, and improving sleep.
