Academic achievements through Physical Activities.

Academic achievements through Physical Activities. DR.Titto Cherian tittocherian@gmail.com Abstract An emerging body of multidisciplinary literature has documented the beneficial influence of physical activity engendered through aerobic exercise on selective aspects of brain function. Human and non-human animal studies have shown that aerobic exercise can improve a number of aspects of cognition and performance. Lack of physical activity, particularly among children in the developed world, is one of the major causes of obesity. Exercise might not only help to improve their physical health, but might also improve their academic performance. This article examines the positive effects of aerobic physical activity on cognition and brain function, at the molecular, cellular, systems and behavioural levels . Keywords: Aerobic exercise, physical health, obesity, cognition Introduction             As schools everywhere...

However, most times lifestyle diseases do refer to those conditions that could be prevented if behavior was changed. There is some evidence to suggest that...
