Regular exercise can improve brain function and protect against dementia in middle-aged and older people, with women getting almost twice as much benefit as men, according to research by the University of Queensland. The study used longitudinal data to study the behavior during physical activity and cognitive functions of 16,700 Europeans aged 54 to 75 years for 13 years. Sabrina Lenzen, a PhD candidate at the University of California School of Economics and the Center for Business and Health Economics, said that previous studies have followed people over time, but they only investigated the relationship between physical activity and cognition.
