Drinking coffee actually helps the brain work! 7 ways to improve memory

Everyone wants to have a keen memory, and the Huffington Post has summed up some daily ways to improve memory.

1. Drink coffee. The refreshing effect of coffee helps the brain function better. A recent study found that drinking coffee after learning new knowledge can help enhance their memory. Drinking coffee causes the brain to release norepinephrine, which helps enhance the process of memory enhancement.

two。 Weightlifting. Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have found that short periods of resistance exercise can help enhance memory of events, such as weightlifting. In a controlled experiment, people who exercised weightlifting recalled 10% more of the same set of photos than those who did not. Saliva tests found that weightlifters had higher levels of norepinephrine, which improved memory.

3. Quit smoking. Quitting smoking can not only reduce the risk of illness, but also improve memory. A study by McGill University and the University of Edinburgh found that smoking thinns the cerebral cortex faster than normal aging and accelerates cognitive decline in adults.

4. Regular sex. A 2013 study from the University of Maryland found that long-term regular sex promotes the formation of new neurons in the brains of middle-aged mice. In the experiment, as long as the mice continued to have sex, there were signs of improvement in age-related cognitive problems.

5. Do aerobics. Aerobic exercise twice a week makes the brain's memory center more energetic, according to a new study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. The researchers selected a group of 70-to 80-year-olds for a comparative study of aerobic exercise, anti-resistance exercise and balance exercise twice a week for six months. It was found that participants who took part in aerobic exercise had the largest increase in the volume of the hippocampus, the main brain area that supports learning and memory.

6. Arrange your sleep time reasonably. A new study has found a strange pattern between memory and sleep: when absorbing new information, the brain keeps people awake, while when the brain prepares to turn short-term memories into long-term memories, the brain sends people to sleep.

7. Smell rosemary. Mark Moss, head of the Department of Psychology at the University of Los Angeles in the UK, says the smell of rosemary contributes to the formation of new long-term memories. The researchers found that people who stayed in rooms that smelled of rosemary were better able to remember events and future tasks than those who had no scent in the room.
