-Women a better ability to scan faces that they've seen in the past 
-Talks about Freud- How our earliest memories might be inappropriate 
-Constantly learning new things so its hard to keep all our memories
-Hard for us to retain memories 
- More likely to remember their early childhood later on in life ]]> 2018-11-26 16:31:09 UTC https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307871017 https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307880018 NO BRAWN, NO BRAINS

Being able to dress, feed, and do basic living activities as well as having the cognitive ability (problem solving, decision making, etc.) represents the rise and fall of abilities your brain can have at a given time

Our brains are just as out of shape as our bodies / healthy body = a healthy mind. Arobic exercises benifits the brain the most.

IS MENTAL HEALTH AND LACK OF ECERCISES CORRELATED?

- aerobic exercise improves the brain 
- Studies have shown that regular exercise is associated with better brain function
Question - "how might regular exercise improve your memory?"

let the rhythm take control:
- music can help stroke patients recover their memories. their attention skills, and their speech. 
- music can boost the immune system and lower blood pressure
helps slow deliberate breathing for 30 minutes a day. 
Question- I know music can be a positive impact on some people , but how might it be a negative impact for people? ]]> 2018-11-26 16:45:17 UTC https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307880387 https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307883319 - a study done by McMaster shows that an estimated amount of 9.2% of Canadians have Developed PTSD, whether if that is refugees fleeing a war torn country or citizens who have experienced a traumatizing past.

-The leading treatment for PTSD threapy is cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) Which is considered the “gold standard” for treatment among other remedies like basic rehabilitation and care. 

-If PTSD is the one of the biggest concerns for United States and its citizens because of how violently and atrociously they develop it, why dont countrys that have heavy conflicts and wars address how important the topic is as well.

Secondly, Kramer mentions in the No Brawns, No Brains article that exercise has its effects all over the brain such as measures of cognition, short-term memory, decision making, attention, as well as executive function. Older adults who exercise tend to have better executive functioning compared to other adults who are not as active and fit. They have a better ability to focus, notice small and relevant details, and filtering out details. 

Question: Do certain nutrients and foods play a crucial factor in the activity of cognitive control areas in the brain? ]]> 2018-11-26 16:50:49 UTC https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307884310 https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307884634 Obese and Obtuse 
- The more obese a person is the more shortage brainpower that person has 
- Their unhealthy choices making them less likely to steer away from fattening foods 
- Food ads for brands cause greater activation of the brain associated with attention

On adverage 1/5 veterans (460,000) suffer from PTSD & depression caused by the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan

The studies of brain imaging have found the different ways that the brains of people with PTSD process of emotional information and cope with stressful/ tramatic situations compaired to those who do not suffer from PTSD


WHAT DO SPECIALISTS TELL THOSE TO TAKE (MEDS) OR WHAT KIND OF TREATMENTS TO DO TO COPE OR FIX THE PTSD THEY ARE SUFFERING FROM?]]> 2018-11-26 16:51:22 UTC https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307884718 https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307886442 2018-11-26 16:53:33 UTC https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307886442 https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307886490 Harold,Ali,Shameer 
What we have learned from this article is our physical fitness affects also affects the rate our brain can work. “Our brains are as out of shape as our bodies”. Also, exercise has an affect on all parts of our brain. Including cognition, short term memory, long term memory and our attention span.
Are there specific physical exercise that more stimulates the brain than others?

Obese and Obtuse 
- As one becomes more obese, particularly around the midriff, their white-matter signal go down. 
- Complex body systems that track energy and satiety levels are constantly providing peripheral signals to the brain about our fuel needs. 
Lesson from article : the way that you treat your body impacts your brain and unhealthy foods have less nutrients which also affects the way the brain functions.

Question : Does obesity affect a child's brain differently than an adult's ?

Let the rhythm take control 
- music can boost the immune system and lower blood pressure in those who listen, along with slow deliberate breathing, for 30 minutes a day. 
- Music can be pleasureable. As pleasure increases, dopamine increases and we like intense emotions to enjoy the experience if there are no consequences. 
Lesson from the article: Music can be a powerful medicine, rewire the brain and reshape behaviour. 

Question : Why do some people learn better when listening to music ? ]]> 2018-11-26 16:54:04 UTC https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307886932 https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307888207 Maddy

-Kids with high fitness levels have bigger hippocampi so therefore they have better relational memory (ie. ability to remember someone's name, appearence, etc.) 
-In older adults, exercise can increase the function of the hippocampi hence offsetting the shrinking of it which improves cognitive impairment and the risk of experiencing dementia later in life 
-How does exercise cause better executive functioning skills to help with focus?]]> 2018-11-26 16:57:56 UTC https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307890153 https://padlet.com/km_fatovic/h6goc69vvp7h/wish/307891655 - When you get unhealthy, that area of your brain gets less effective
