Fast Cycling Benefits Parkinson's Patients
Cycling on stationary bikes may benefit people with Parkinson's disease, especially if they cycle hard and fast. This was the finding of a new study presented this week at a scientific meeting in the US, that describes how researchers found cycling, especially at rates above what patients would choose for themselves, appeared to make regions of the brain that deal with movement connect to each other more effectively.
Vigorous exercise lowers blood sugar and improves brain function.

My father has proven this can easily be counteracted with chocolate, peanuts and beer.
