“The anterior cingulate has been linked to superior cognition in late life." > Exercisers who improved their memory performance also showed greater increase in brain blood flow to the hippocampus, the key brain region affected by Alzheimer's disease.”

“They took yearly tests of their thinking and memory skills, and after death, a neurologist reviewed their records and determined whether they had dementia, some memory and thinking problems called mild cognitive impairment or no thinking and memory problems.”

“Xenophagy Xenophagy is a function of the innate immune system. It targets foreign pathogens (such as bacteria or viruses), regulates antigen presentation, and induces innate immune memory – a vital process wherein immune cells "remember" threats.”

“In addition, the test results indicated that continued use of standing desks was associated with brain activation patterns in frontal brain regions and this correlated with improvements in executive function and working memory.”

“Benefits have not reliably extended to processing speed, recognition memory, visuospatial learning, working memory, or cerebral blood flow. Observational cohorts Across large prospective cohorts, higher blueberry, berry, or anthocyanin intake is generally associated with slower cognitive decline and lower dementia risk over time.”

“They found widespread reductions in gray matter volume and cortical thickness, which became more pronounced as the pregnancy progressed. These changes were particularly evident in brain areas related to memory and emotional processing, including the hippocampus and parts of the cortex.”

“The restricted mice also performed better on cognitive assessments and exhibited less amyloid-beta accumulation in the brain. Time-restricted feeding also normalized gene expression in the hippocampus, an area of the brain involved in memory and often affected by Alzheimer's disease.”

“Evidence for cognition is less consistent. A meta-analysis of 16 randomized trials found a modest memory benefit but no significant improvement in overall cognition or executive function.”

“Findings from a recent study suggest that COVID-19 causes long-term gray matter losses in areas of the brain involved in taste, smell, and memory. COVID-19 affects multiple organ systems and elicits a wide range of flu-like symptoms, including cough and fatigue.”

“If you're struggling to remember things, a robust workout might help. Scientists have discovered that exercise can increase levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a protein that supports learning and memory.”
