Exercising 30 Minutes Can Boost Memory

Experts neuroscience from the University of Adelaide, said the exercise, especially aerobic type can provide positive change in the brain. One advantage is to improve memory and balance the body.
Research conducted by the University's Robinson Institute have found a change in the brain by exercising for 30 minutes.

According to them, doing aerobic exercise for 30 minutes makes the brain more like plastic. This study was conducted with the involvement of a group of 20-30 year olds with cycling. The study was conducted by monitoring changes in the brain, immediately after their cycling, and 15 minutes later.
"We see positive changes in the brain directly, and last up to 15 minutes after the exercise is completed," said Professor Michael Ridding of the institiut recently.

"Plastic nature of the brain is essential for learning, memory, and balance the body," he added.
According to the 'elastic like plastic', then the brain will be able to organize themselves, to strengthen the relationship between cord and different brain areas.

Professor Ridding also added in the past research shows that physical activity done regularly can positively impact the functioning of the brain, but have not found the type of physical activity such as what could be the impact.

"Now there is strong evidence that aerobic exercise positively affects brain function in many ways, at the molecular and cellular level, as well as the 'architect' of the brain."
"Although only involves a small group, but it will help to understand more about how physical activity affects the brain," added Professor Riding.
This study received support from the Council of National Health and Medical Research (NHMRC) in Australia.
