Walking 35 minutes do wonders

*Getting the heart pumping with aerobic exercise, like walking or cycling for 35 minutes three times a week, may improve thinking skills in older adults* with cognitive impairments, according to a study published in the December 19, 2018 online issue of Neurology. *After SIX MONTHS of EXERCISE, study participants’ scores on thinking tests improved by the equivalent of REVERSING nearly NINE YEARS of AGING.*

_A combination of weight training and aerobic exercise is the best prescription_ for overweight patients at risk for diabetes and heart disease. _Only aerobic exercise is also as good_ as it reduces weight and takes inches off the waistlines. ```Just weight lifting alone has very little benefit.```

~According to a study published in the American Journal of Cardiology, people in the weight–training group gained about 1.5 pounds and those in the aerobic group lost an average of 3 pounds and half an inch from their waists. Those who did both weight and aerobic training dropped about 4 pounds and 1 inch from the waistline. This group also saw a decrease in diastolic lower blood pressure and in a metabolic syndrome score. Both the aerobic–only group and the combined-exercise group also lowered their levels of bad triglycerides.~
