Exercise and Brain Health

Meaning

Exercise and Brain Health describes the bidirectional, clinically significant relationship between structured physical activity and the maintenance or improvement of neurological and cognitive function. From an endocrine perspective, regular exercise is a potent modulator of neurotrophic factors and hormones, directly influencing mood, memory, and resilience to neurodegeneration. Clinical protocols leverage specific types and intensities of exercise to optimize the release of beneficial hormones and mitigate the negative effects of chronic stress on the central nervous system. This link is foundational to holistic hormonal wellness.
