Recently it has been proven that physical exercise appears to have a significant relationship with lowering the risk of cognitive impairment in the elderly. This is shown to have occurred over a two year period in a study involving over 4000 participants aging 55 yrs old and greater form southern Bavaria.

The study stated that 418 participants (10.7%) had cognitive impairment at the start of the study, however after 2 years 207 (5.9%) of the remaining 3485 unimpaired developed cognitive impairment. The incidence of new cognitive impairment among participants with no, moderate and high activity baseline was 13.9%, 6.7% and 5.1% respectively.
