'Feel good' hormone could explain why exercise helps boost your brain
Briefly

"We know cardiovascular exercise improves cognitive performance, but the exact mechanisms behind this process have not been rigorously investigated in humans until now. Using novel brain imaging techniques, we were able to examine the role dopamine plays in boosting brain function during exercise, and the results are really promising. Our current study suggests the hormone is an important neuromodulator for improved reaction time."
"These findings support growing evidence that exercise prescription is a viable therapy for a host of health conditions across the lifespan."
