Summary

This study looked at whether walking while doing simple thinking tasks (like counting or naming things) can help older adults with brain fog. 90 people aged 65+ with brain fog took part. They were split into two groups: one walked while doing mental tasks, the other just walked. Both groups exercised three times a week for four weeks. The goal was to see if the thinking-while-walking group had better improvements in memory, mood, sleep, and quality of life.
