Are You Reducing Your Risk of Alzheimer's Through Exercise?



I was talking to my friend the other night and she mentioned that she is worried that she may develop Alzheimer's. She is not a fan of exercise and hasn't been for years. I told her how critical exercise is to prevent Alzheimer's amongst many other diseases.


Sticking with a regular exercise program may be the most difficult lifestyle change we try to make. It is a choice that we must make priority.


Exercise strengthens the pumping force of your heart, increases blood flow to the brain, enhances your health and reduces the risk of diseases that can effect brain functioning such as Alzheimer's.


It is so crucial that you try for 30 minutes a day to walk, jog, swim, cycle, hike or what ever it is you like to do to get your heart rate up.
