Physical activity influences functional outcomes from cerebral vascular events
New data on the effect of physical activity and functional outcomes from cerebral vascular events in men suggest that physical activity may help to reduce the risk for stroke and transient ischemic attack, but physical activity before stroke or transient ischemic attack does not seem to influence functional outcomes after cerebral vascular events.
Sure, we knew about the improvements it can provide to aerobic capacity, not to mention muscles and joints, but two recently released studies show that walking can enhance brain function, too.
