00:00Forty-five minutes of moderate aerobic exercise four times a week may boost thinking skills in postmenopausal women.
00:06This finding could change how brain health is preserved after menopause.
00:10A study published in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease followed 93 women, 43% postmenopausal, who had below-average fitness
00:19and rarely exercised.
00:21Those who did aerobic workouts showed improved executive function, including memory and decision-making, within three months.
00:27These benefits strengthened over six months, suggesting exercise supports brain resilience during menopause.
00:34Experts say aerobic activity improves cardiovascular health and brain pathways linked to learning.
00:40Still, some caution, the study's small size means results need confirmation, with two-thirds of Alzheimer's cases in women.
00:47This research highlights exercise as a practical step to protect cognitive function after menopause.
