Single Workout Sparks Brain Ripples in Humans

Source: Google News - HealthWe've long known that exercise is good for the brain, but a groundbreaking study suggests one reason why. For the first time in humans, researchers found that a single 20-minute session on a stationary bike triggers a burst of high-frequency brain waves called ripples. These ripples originate in the hippocampus and surge toward the regions responsible for learning and recall, rapidly reshaping brain networks used for thinking and memory.
