Scientists from the University of Highlands have found a new benefit to walking, affecting the brain more than jogging or cycling.
The site "EurekAlert", that walking helps the flow of blood to the brain, which in turn improves the memory and cognitive ability of man.
Twelve healthy young volunteers, who moved at a fixed speed of one meter per second, were observed in a vertical position, and the blood supply of the brain was monitored by ultrasound.
In the past, Spanish statisticians have pointed out that Swedes, Danes and Finns have the highest level of physical activity.

"Both walking AND RUNNING created pressure waves that significantly increased blood flow.
The effect was unsurprisingly BIGGER while running than walking.
Yet, walking's effect was greater than cycling, which involves no foot impact at all.
It was once thought that the brain's blood supply was involuntarily regulated by the body and affected by changes in blood pressure.
The researchers wrote in the study: 'New data now strongly suggest that brain blood flow is very dynamic.
'Speculatively, [walking AND RUNNING] may optimize brain perfusion, function and overall sense of wellbeing during exercise.'
This comes after researchers from Iowa State University found every hour you run could extend your lifespan by seven hours.
This holds true no matter how fast you run or how many miles you cover, they found. "
^^^^^^^^
That's in YOUR OWN SOURCE. Yet the title of your blog is "walking affects the brain more than running"
????? Perhaps you should read your sources before you blog about them. This is the third misleading blog of yours I Have read
