NewzA recent scientific study incorporating data from over 4.2 million individuals has examined the relationship between physical activity and brain health, specifically addressing whether all forms of exercise contribute equally to reducing the risk of dementia.

Specifically, the study highlights that exercise practiced for pleasure is beneficial for brain health, whereas physical activity done for work does not share the same positive impact.
