Aging of the brain

Documentary on aging of the brain.

Old idea: brain loses neurons over time that connot be recovered. "Brain is not a muscle." Result: senility.

New discovery: Old idea is false. Brain responds amazingly to "exercise," developing continually even into old age.

Bike related note: Milton (last name?) is 92. He has exercised everyday since he was 42. His mind is in great shape.

Researchers now believe that exercise has a tremendous power to rejuvinate and keep healthy one's brain cells into old age.

KEEP ACTIVE, MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY!

(There's nothing new under the sun... )



(Neurons CAN be replaced!)
