The brain is the organ of greatest importance that we have, without it, we simply cannot make any action. Our brain is the responsible to carry all the information in our body; it controls our motor skills, breathing and until our thoughts.
Maintain a good health will depend not only on our good nutrition, but also to do cardiovascular exercises every day to that all of our organs be oxygenated through the blood, and among these organs, it is the brain. Good oxygenation is given by the new blood that is pumped through different veins and arteries, which are responsible for bringing it up to the brain and to convert the glucose into fuel. This is why that move our body with exercises will be a great ally for the brain to function properly.
The reality is that all the exercises that accelerate the pulse of our heart will help to oxygenate the brain. This blood pumping should last for a considerable time to that all of our organs and muscles be filled with new blood. Physical activity will be the key to this. Among cardiovascular exercises that will be help to oxygenate the brain are:
Walking: This exercise is ideal for the elderly people; it will not be high-impact and will be perfect to circulate the blood. Do it in a pleasant atmosphere, with a proper breathing and without stopping. This exercise can be done until walking your pet, with a friend or family member, but always keeping up the rate.
Jogging: it is an exercise that not everybody likes, but believe me that not only will be good for your brain and circulation. It is scientifically proven that exercise eliminates stress, helps with depression and increases the production of serotonin.
These exercises should be done every day, for a minimum of thirty minutes a day. Believe me that your body will thank you.
How do we know when present lack of oxygen in the brain? The lack of oxygen in our blood is defined as hypoxia, and is given by the poor blood supply. The symptoms of lack of oxygen in our brain are:
Shortness of breath: When we were left breathless indicates that we do not have enough oxygen. This can be caused by lung problems such as emphysema or bronchitis.
Lack of energy: energy is given by the blood that carries oxygen throughout our body. When does not reach oxygen enough, our body has no energy: we are exhausted and too lazy.
A clear example of lack of oxygen is when we travel to places like the mountains of great heights. Being these places little oxygenated, we fill our body of empty air; which quickly leads us to a loss of consciousness from lack of oxygen.
Perform exercises every day and make your brain work best.
