Topics Covered:
1. Symptoms of Prefrontal Cortex Dysfunction
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Impulsivity
- Lack of self-control
- Poor stress regulation
- Focus issues, inattention
- Problems with organizing, planning, or task-switching
- Problems with executive function
- Addictions
2. Frontal Lobe Functions:
- Motor Cortex: Controls the execution of movement
- Motor Association Area: Involved in planning and coordinating movements
- Frontal Eye Fields: Control voluntary eye movements and visual attention
- Prefrontal Cortex: Manages executive functions like emotion regulation, focus, planning, organizing information, decision-making, and problem-solving
3. Benefits of High-Intensity Exercise:
- Improves prefrontal cortex functioning and executive functions
- Enhances blood flow and energy production in the brain
- Reduces the risk of Alzheimer's disease by 45%
4. Lactate Production During Exercise:
- Muscles produce lactate during high-intensity exercise
- Lactate crosses the blood-brain barrier and is used by brain cells for energy
- Provides neuroprotection and supports cognitive functions
5. BHB Production During Exercise:
- High-intensity exercise depletes glycogen stores, leading to fat burning and BHB production
- BHB crosses the blood-brain barrier, enhancing brain energy production
- Protects the brain, enhances neuroplasticity, and improves mood
6. Practical Tips:
- Short Bursts of Exercise: Just 6 minutes of high-intensity exercise can significantly boost brain health.
- Exercise in a Fasted State: Enhances the production of brain-beneficial molecules.
