What Happened
Researchers from Seoul National University and Korea Brain Research Institute discovered that aerobic exercise prompts mice to produce increased skeletal muscle protein. This protein travels through blood to the brain, strengthening memory consolidation from short-term to long-term. The findings suggest exercise may enhance cognitive function through biochemical mechanisms.
