Natural Health Remedies - Exercise and Alzheimers

Did you know that the more fit you are, the less chance you have of developing Alzheimer's disease? It's true. A recent study at the University of Kansas found that fit patients had 4 times less brain shrinkage (meaning cell death) than patients that weren't fit, or didn't get any exercise.

The benefits that exercise provides to older people include increased blood vessels and blood flow, which may prevent brain cells from dying. Researchers suggest that when beginning exercise for the first time, begin by walking for 15 to 30 minutes three times per week.

See, natural health remedies DO provide lots of benefits! Exercise, diet and natural supplements can make HUGE changes in your life.
