Regular exercise improves mood, reduces anxiety, enhances cognition, and protects the brain against depression, Alzheimer’s disease and stroke. In this episode Harvard neuroscientist Christiane Wrann and I talk about recent research that has elucidated how exercise affects the structure, functionality, and resilience of the brain. The mechanisms involve brain intrinsic responses to exercise as well as molecules released from muscle cells that travel to the brain.
