Don't abandon physical activity this exam season! Research shows that physical exercise releases proteins in the brain that can actually help improve your memory and increase your cognitive performance. This is because the hippocampus, the area of our brain that is involved with retaining information is incredibly responsive to these proteins. So whether you’re revising for an exam or finishing a project, you’ll be able to take in and retain what you learn much more easily if you have been doing some regular exercise.
