Certainly important.

Do you believe that physical activity could defeat the brain viruses?

I don’t know. I do believe it helps, but then again the research about dormant viruses found in Alzheimer’s brains may negate any and all efforts. Nobody really knows at this point with so much conflicting research and trials.

I am really happy they’ve started expanding research beyond just amyloid plaque, which everyone has to an extent, and they focused on extensively for 30 years now.
