Improving Brain Function - Areyo Dadar

Exercise builds new brain cells and a process which is known as neurogenesis

was recently discovered that demonstrated that the new brain cells are

continuously being made as well as stored. One third of the neurons in the

hippocampus, the area of the brain are involved in forming, organizing and

storing memories which are regularly renewed throughout the life.

Experiences and learning strengthened these new neurons which cause them

to branch out and make new connections and as the neurons were utilized,

they developed even more connections and became stronger. Our brains are

made up of billions of connections and the more neurons we have the bigger

our brains and the better our cognitive functioning and exercise contribute to

the growing of new neurons.

The body’s fuel which is derived from our food is digested and moved into the

blood stream, it needs to be converted into energy. Within each cell are

thousands of smaller molecules called mitochondria which are also known as

the cells’ energy factories and they turn the glucose into a substance called

adenosine triphosphate. Exercise also produces proteins which travel through

the blood stream and in the brain playing a critical role in our highest thought

processes.
