I’m not sure if you read my piece on memory and dementia recently but the head of a huge healthcare system here said not to worry about things like that. As we age it takes more time to absorb information and multi-tasking makes things worse. Not remembering why you came into a room is not serious. I have sent you the link to that article, and keep on going!

Thank you. I understand the article explains the link between aging well and exercise, but the biological explanation for mood enhancement following exercis is interesting, too.

I’m either in the gym, running, cycling or swimming every day. I still regularly go upstairs and forget what I went up for. What am I doing wrong? Could it be the two glasses of wine every night? Great read thanks.

I replied to your comment but it’s now at the top of the comments instead of being in a thread with you. Very strange. Anyway my answer to your question is above.

I couldn't agree more. The older I get the more important regular exercise becomes.

Absolutely. You can’t age well without aging healthily.

Even though I don’t really like excercising anymore, the author is “spot on!”
