Understanding the Neuroscience Behind Exercise and Mental Health with Ieva Andrulytė
EP 20: In this episode, we delve into the intricate connections between exercise, brain function, and mental health with the brilliant Ieva Andrulytė, a PhD student specializing in neuroscience. Our discussion uncovers how different forms of exercise impact the brain, the role of neuroplasticity, and the science behind how physical activity can sharpen memory, enhance mood, and improve cognitive function.
We also talk about how exercise can impact genetics, how fast food can impact depression and we get some motivation from Ieva herself on how a busy PhD student manages to make time for herself and her wellness.
