HIIT and Cognitive Health

This chapter examines the importance of lifestyle interventions, particularly high-intensity interval training (HIIT), in addressing cognitive decline and dementia. It critiques the current funding priorities that lean towards pharmaceuticals instead of lifestyle research, while highlighting a rigorous study that investigates the long-term effects of HIIT on brain function. The chapter emphasizes a dose-response relationship between exercise intensity and cognitive benefits, encouraging further exploration of how different workout protocols impact brain health.
