People with MCI due to Alzheimer’s disease have biomarker evidence of Alzheimer’s brain changes plus subtle problems with memory and thinking. These cognitive problems may be noticeable to the individual, family members and friends, but not to others, and they do not interfere with individuals’ ability to carry out everyday activities. The mild changes in thinking abilities occur when the brain can no longer compensate for the damage and death of nerve cells caused by Alzheim...er’s disease. ****** Reflect Neuropsychology provides comprehensive memory and cognitive assessment and treatment recommendations for known or suspected neurologic or neuropsychiatric disorders in Southern California.

Physical exercise is not only important for your body’s health- it also helps your brain stay sharp! We all know exercising is good for the body. The benefits of physical exercise, especially aerobic exercise, have positive effects on brain function on multiple fronts, ranging from the molecular to behavioral level. According to a study done by the Department of Exercise Science at the University of Georgia, even briefly exercising for 20 minutes facilitates information proce...ssing and memory functions. Achieving Healthy Brain Aging Thru Physical Exercise Aerobic exercise (cardio) raises your heart rate and increases blood flow to your brain. Your increased heart rate and faster breathing pumps more oxygen into your to your brain. This leads to neurogenesisor the production of neuronsin certain parts of your brain that control memory and thinking. Neurogenesis increases brain volume, and this cognitive reserve is believed to help buffer against the effects of dementia. Exercise promotes the production of neurotrophins, leading to greater brain plasticity, and therefore, better memory and learning & increased neurotransmitters. ****** Reflect Neuropsychology provides comprehensive memory and cognitive assessment and treatment recommendations for known or suspected neurologic or neuropsychiatric disorders in Southern California.
