A bunch of brain training/fitness software is now available on the market ever since Nintendo started marketing its DS and the Brain Age game. There is even a sequel to Brain Age - Big Brain Academy. As I am getting older, I wonder if I should invest some time and money in this. If I am a gamer and own a DS, I would probably get Brain Age and try it out. But I am not and don't own a DS so getting Brain Age would be a bigger investment for me as I will need to buy both hardware and software.
But it turns out that a research done at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign shows that simply aerobic exercies like walking increases the brain's volume and may be a simple and effective way to reverse age-related brain deterioration. Now that's what I call a no brainer.
