Forget about brain fitness exercises for your child, all the indications are that all you need to do is to encourage you child to exercise regularly and his brain fitness will develop alongside.

Maybe you’ve heard of news like this before, but only in the context of older people who could fight senility by going out for a walk a bit. But this recent research doesn’t go to anything that limited; young, middle-aged or old, exercise gives everyone a real brain fitness boost.

A very recent study, makes this interesting finding: 18-year-old boys were picked for their excellent cardiovascular health, and tested for academic ability; often, they did better at various logic and reasoning tests than boys of that age who were less fit. 15-year-old boys who did not enjoy good cardiovascular health, if they could be persuaded to get in shape before they were 18, always steadily showed improved brain fitness, and an test performance. And those same 18-year-olds were seen to go on to achieve better education later in life. This study appeared in the scientific publication, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences just couple of months ago.
