Massive Texas Study Links Midlife Exercise to Brain Health
A new University of Texas at San Antonio study suggests midlife cardiovascular health may influence brain aging decades later. Researchers analyzed 402 adults from San Antonio, with 52% identifying as Hispanic and an average age of 57.9. Physical activity was linked to slower cognitive decline among Mexican American participants, while lower fasting blood glucose was associated with slower decline among non-Hispanic white participants. The findings highlight potential links between exercise, blood sugar and later-life cognitive health. Researchers say larger studies are needed to confirm differences across populations and guide prevention strategies.
