I only add new peer reviewed research.
Press release here: https://www.kyushu-u.ac.jp/en/researches/view/288
“Increased neuron growth in the hippocampus through exercise or genetic approaches helps mice forget strong, maladaptive memories, raising the promise of new PTSD or drug addiction treatments.”
Wow, finally an excuse to justify my avoidance of the gym: I'm just trying to preserve my traumatic and addictive memories! 🏋️♂️🧠
Seriously though, this is fascinating research. Exercise not only helps us look good but also might help our brains let go of those unwanted memories. So next time you're dragging yourself to a workout, just remember: you're not only toning your muscles but also rewiring your brain for the better. 🏃♀️🔄
Looks like it’s time to hit the treadmill and let those bad memories jog away!
