How to Improve Memory Enhancement with Exercise

Throughout life there are occasions when memory fails us, but undaunted we continue on. Anyone for example who has, or knows children is well aware that they forget things on a regular basis. Parents often ask, “Where did you leave your mittens?” “Why didn’t you bring home the books you need to do your homework?” “When were you told to be home?” The universal reply from children, punctuated in their unique ways is, “I forgot.”

Forgetting doesn’t seem to phase children, adolescents or young adults in the least. The same is true for adults until some point in time when they cannot recall on demand the name of someone, some place, or something so familiar to them that they begin to worry about the state of their memory. “Senior-moment” is a popular socially acceptable phrase, used particularly among aging baby boomers, when one experiences public memory failure. While some make the appearance of taking memory failure lightly, covering it up with this catchy phrase, others publicly show their frustrations and concerns. Regardless of how one responds in public there is a great deal of anxiety about forgetfullness. With forgetfullness is the fear that it is an early sign of Alzheimer’s Disease or another form of dementia. This anxiety and fear may be particularly acute for caregivers whose parent or parents have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease.

How can memory be enhanced with aging?

Memory enhancement is comprised of many things and must be personalized.

It requires keeping the mind active and providing the brain and the body with the exercise and supports needed for optimal functioning. It must being with acknowledging to yourself why you want to enhance your memory. To being any activities to promote healthy aging you need to be sufficiently motivated to be able to begin and sustain the changes you are making. No matter how simple the activities may seem, change does not occur without conscious intent. Conscious intent requires continuous reinforcement, as it takes at least three weeks to change or add a new behavior.

It is generally better to focus on one change at a time. Not only does this allow you to incorporate it into your activity pattern, it also allows you to see how you are responding to it. Trying to implement too many changes at the same time is not realistic and most often is doomed for failure. When we are not successful with implementing a change it can impact how we feel about our selves. When embarking on behavioral changes it’s important to remember to be realistic and to be kind to yourself. Think about which one of the several changes you would like to make will have the greatest positive impact for you. Start there and work toward your goal of changing or adding the new behavior. Success breeds success.

Food rich in Vitamin B6, B12 and Folic acid, such as spinach, broccoli, strawberries, black beans, soybeans and melons support the formation of oxygen carrying red blood cells as well as breaks down amino acids which are harmful for the nerve cells. Antioxidants such as Vitamin C and Vitamin E contained in foods like sweet potatoes, tomatoes, green tea, berries, citrus fruits among others also help in memory enhancement as they interact with the free radicals and neutralize them before they damage our body cells.

Understanding the working of the brain, training it appropriately and supplementing it with proper nutrition can work wonders for the brain and thus, for our memory enhancement.
