Is there really a way to reduce stress while also boosting our memory? To improve our IQ while simultaneously slowing down the aging process? To become more creative while enhancing our ability to concentrate? The answer is simple: movement. All the data from neuroscience research today points, more than ever, to the impressive positive impact of physical exercise on our cognitive functions.
In Brainfit, Swedish psychiatrist Anders Hansen guides us, in a simple and inspired way, into the world of the brain as a whole, presenting the most modern findings about the health of the center of our existence. By reading this book, we understand, among many other things, how and why physical exercise is the best protection against dementia, why exercise increases children's ability to concentrate, how it can help them when they have ADHD, what makes the "runner's high" improve our health and mood... With broad knowledge, deep understanding, and interdisciplinary education, Hansen takes up the thread of a story that goes back to antiquity, bringing to the present the exhortation of Hippocrates: "If you have a bad mood, go for a walk. If you still have a bad mood, go again."
"I highly recommend this book to those who are interested in the brain, their own or others'." Carl Johan Sundberg, MD, PhD, Professor at the Karolinska Institute
