Summary
A groundbreaking and fascinating investigation into the transformative effects of exercise on the brain, from the bestselling author and renowned psychiatrist John J. Ratey, MD.
I might give it another listen.. he keeps talking about various groups that are impacted.. Not only for the average folks, but also how individuals with psychological problems gain from physical activity.
All in all, a fantastic book. I reckon I'll give it another go because some parts were a bit too science-heavy for me.
I'm a major advocate for exercise and its impact on both our physical and mental well-being. This book delves into several clinical studies, primarily focusing on animal research with a sprinkle of human studies. Although these findings haven't been widely embraced in Western medicine, they do provide some insightful perspectives.
The author seems to aim at reinforcing the idea that exercise is beneficial for our brains by delving into the technical aspects. However, I personally found it difficult to grasp the medical jargon.
Initially, I didn't feel that this book was particularly valuable while listening to it. However, considering my belief in the advantages of exercise, especially for older individuals, I have become more confident in its potential benefits.
