Researchers at McMaster University say orienteering, an outdoor sport that exercises the mind and body through navigation puzzles, can train the brain and stave off cognitive decline. The aim of orienteering is to navigate between checkpoints or controls marked on a special map. In competitive orienteering, the challenge is to complete the course in the quickest time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For older adults, scientists say the sport \u2014 which sharpens navigational skills and memory \u2014 could become a useful intervention measure to fight off the slow decline related to dementia onset. They believe the physical and cognitive demands of orienteering can stimulate parts of the brain our ancient ancestors used for hunting and gathering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[ <a href=\"https:\/\/studyfinds.org\/using-real-maps-prevents-alzheimers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">click to continue reading at Study Finds<\/a> ]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>from Study Finds Waze leads to brain haze?
