Week 7 (or 8) :)



I went onto BBC News and I saw this very cool article on the Health section about fit hearts can slow the brain aging. This article is about the Boston University team observing that the brain shrinks as it ages, so people should have a fit body and fit heart to decrease the rate of brain failure. They also did many different kinds of experiment and found out that lower volume of blood pumping from heart might cause reduce flow to the brain, where it will not have a lot of energy, oxygen, and nutrients, but the brain cells need these for its health. I think this is quite important of us, espically in the US because we are like the most obesed country in the world and not a lot of our hearts is very good. This article reminds us that we should eat and be healther to make our heart stronger, so our brain will last longer. Without a strong brain, we cannot learn a lot or be very smart. :D
Thank you for listening, ans sorry for a later post of this blog :)
