July 7, 2010: You already should know that exercise is good for you; Exersize strengthens your heart; Exersize lowers your cholesterol; Exersize raises your libido; Exersize can add years to your life expectancy.
However… did you also know exersize is good for your brain?
Yup
Exercise increases neurogenesis (the production of new brain cells).
So do something; Walk, jog, swim, pedal — even small amounts can produce results.
Stand up! Step away from the computer! Put down that ipad, ipod, crackberry, or whatever!
Take a walk! Take a swim! Ride a Bike! It's good for you! AND...You’ll think more clearly with all those new brain cells!
