Although several studies have shown that to prevent Alzheimer's, one needs to frequently
exercise such as swimming, biking, etc. Now a new study has shown that
for those elderly who are too frail to do rigorous exercise, doing
chores around the house can also help prevent one from getting
Alzheimer's only if they are done enough. Older people tend to garden a
lot and those are one of the activities that have been identified that
helps older people prevent AlzheimersThe study shows that the higher
level of physical activity one participates in, the lower their risk for Alzheimer's.
Although doctors prefer that people push themselves to exercise to get
the full benefit, it is very true that old people cant push themselves
to exercise compared to young people.
