According to neurosurgeon and brain health expert Sanjay Gupta, your brain is the only organ that can get stronger as you age. Every single day, our brains produce up to 700 new neurons that can reinforce whatever mental capacity we want.
This is called Neuroplasticity, our brain’s ability to continue growing and adapting as long as there’s proper stimulation.
In his critically-acclaimed book, Keep Sharp: Build a Better Brain at Any Age, Dr. Gupta explains the 5 pillars that create the perfect environment to nurture our brains. They are the lifestyle choices that, regardless of our background and age, help us maximize our brain’s potential.
#1. Exercise Holistically
“A body in motion tends to stay in motion.”
— Dr. Gupta
The connection between physical fitness and brain health is clear, direct, and powerful. Research cited in Dr. Gupta’s book shows that movement can supercharge our brains because it helps increase, repair, and maintain neurons.
