Texto para a questão
As everybody knows, if you do not work out, your
muscles get flaccid. What most people don’t realize,
however, is that your brain also stays in better shape
when you exercise.
Surprised? Although the idea of exercising cognitive
machinery by performing mentally demanding activities –
popularly termed the “use it or lose it” hypothesis – is
better known, a review of dozens of studies shows that
maintaining a mental edge requires more than that. Other
things you do – including participating in activities that
make you think, getting regular exercise, staying socially
engaged and even having a positive attitude – have a
meaningful influence on how effective your cognitive
functioning will be in old age.
