You know that eating healthy, staying active, and working out a few brain games can help keep you sharp. But these lesser-known habits work wonders, too.
1. Sit tall
When we are sad or afraid, we are more likely to slouch(没精打采地站、坐或走). This position causes us to feel worried or 65 . It makes harder to think clearly and remember things. In a study of 125 university students, 56 percent found it easier to do maths problems when they sat up 66 than when they slumped down.
Sitting tall does improve memory because it helps blood and oxygen flow to the brain—by up to 40 percent.
2. Exercise—once
Having trouble remembering faces? In a small study, researchers showed pictures of faces to older people on two different days and after two different kinds of exercise. On one day, they rode bikes for 20 minutes and made sure they breathed heavily but were still able to talk. On the other day, they 67 sat on a self-pedaling bike for 20 minutes.
68 , people remembered the faces better after this single exercise.
3. Limit TV
As we all know, too much screen time can hurt a child's cognitive (认知)development. But what about those old people?
It was a long-term study for those who were over 50, and they were healthy as well. It was found that people who watched more than three and a half hours of TV a day for six years experienced a greater 69 in memory test scores than those who watched less. Another study found that watching violent programming harms people's memory as well.
4. Walk backwards
When trying to recall something, don't just think “walk backwards". In a series of 70 ,people viewed a video of a movie, a word list or a set of pictures. Then they imagined walking forward or backwards, watched a video that moved forward or backward, or actually walked forwards or backwards. Some people also sat still.
