Being Fit May Protect The Brain If A Stroke Occurs in Fanwood

Among a group of 84 stroke patients in Fanwood, those with higher cardiorespiratory fitness scores performed better on cognitive assessments and had brain scans showing both greater grey matter brain volume and greater white brain matter integrity.

This suggests that physical fitness may protect the brain in the event of a stroke.

This is just one of the many benefits of being fit.
