Exercise and your noggin


It’s no secret that a strenuous workout is great for your waistline, but can it also improve your memory? In a study published in Physiology & Behavior, sedentary young males took memory tests after a bout of intensive cycling or inactivity. Subjects who exercised performed signifi cantly better on the memory test. In blood tests, researchers found that a protein called brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) increased notably after activity—suggesting that exercise-spurred BDNF helps improve memory.

Simple Squares


These treats’ unique, not-too- sweet herbal combinations caught my fancy.

Simply brilliant. –Elisa Bosley, senior food editor
