Hello!Remember when your mother would always encourage you to stop watching TV and go out and play? There was a reason for that! Moving your body keeps your brain healthy! Today on Maude's Two-Minute Meddlings, I'm going to discuss how and why physical activity keeps your brain in optimum shape.

#1 - It increases blood flow to the brain
增加向大脑的血液流动
A steady, healthy flow of blood to your brain is important for two reasons. First, the blood brings oxygen and nutrients to the brain,which is essential for your brain to function.Second, the blood washes away waste that has been linked to dementia -- good riddance,I say!
通向大脑的稳定的,健康的血液流动很重要,有两个方面的原因 。首先,血液为大脑带来氧气和养料,这对大脑运作来说是必需的 。第二,血液可以冲走导致痴呆的药物——谢天谢地!

#3 It improves learning
学习更好了

运动增加了大脑化学物质的水平,帮助形成新的大脑细胞 。这让你学习更加容易 。活动越复杂——比如打网球或参加舞蹈班——益处就越大 。
#4 -- It lifts depression
消除抑郁
Exercise appears to stimulate the growth of neurons in certain areas of your brain, acting as a natural mood elevator.
运动似乎可以刺激大脑特定区域神经元的生长,作为天然的情绪促进剂 。
and #5 -- It fends off memory loss
可以预防失忆
Studies have shown if you're engaged in even a small amount of exercise -- short walks,gardening, cleaning -- you'll score better on mental tests than those who didn't exercise at all.
研究表明,即使每天只进行少量运动——短暂的步行,清洁——你在智力测试中的表现也比完全不运动的人更好 。
