Exercise also promotes changes in norepinephrine (noradrenaline), dopamine and few other neurotransmitters, some of which are known to affect focus and cognition.
- guerrilla 5y agoThat would only be short-lived though, no?
- onenite 5y agoAnd so there’s the case to be made for a regular dose of exercise to promote optimal cognitive function and productivity :-D
- guerrilla 5y agoSure, but presumably unrelated to the formation of new neurons.
- onenite 5y agoSorry, I'm not sure what you mean. Could you please elaborate? Also, are you familiar with the research/info on the association between exercise and neurogenesis? https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24818140/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24818140/ https://www.pnas.org/content/108/7/3017.full https://www.pnas.org/content/108/7/3017.full https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4565723/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4565723/
- guerrilla 5y agoThe article that I posted as the OP explains the mechanism of exercise-induces neurogenesis but seems to have nothing to do with hericium's suggestion of monoamines.
- hericium 5y agoThere were studies showing/suggesting dopamine's relation to neurogenesis. Linked study mentions SEPP1 which can be found in dopaminergic axons so I maybe read too much from it but chained this as: exercise -> dopamine -> other goodies -> ... -> profit
