The magic molecule
Exercise makes a differance at the cellular level.
The molecular basis of exercise and its impact for maintaining neural function and plasticity has been found, the effect of BDNF (Brain Derieved Neutrophic Factor). BDNF seen to promote neuronal repair, learning and memory. Exercise helps to augment synaptic plasticity, promote behavioural rehabilitation and counteract deletrious effect of aging. Central nervous system has the regeneration potential. The effect of exercise go beyond simply increasing regional blood supply/ motor- sensory regions of the brain. Mailoo VJ (2006) even explored correlation of immune system and mind in Psychoneuroimmunolgical studies for different disease conditions.
