I did not find research directly answering your question. So the answer is probably no one knows the answer.

brain performance sounds a big subject. People have a higher sense of wellbeing and heath is strongly correlated to a reduction in depression and anxiety if that's what you mean

Whatever increase in brain performance I've received is offset by reading the message boards. It shaves off several IQ points every time I check in here. I really need to stop while I can still think.

I haven't lost very much weight yet, and I can't confirm an increase in brain function with any well-known, legitimate sources, but...

...what were we talking about again? :ohwell:




The rest of your body increases in performance when you lose weight that you need to lose (generally speaking)...it stands to reason the brain would also, as it is also part of your body. I have nada to confirm that, just my opinion and you know what they say about those....:laugh:

Well, here's my super specific answer so take it for what it's worth. I have ADHD and exercise helps me even more than medication does. When I work out hard for an hour+ per day I notice a huge improvement in my focus, planning ability, and memory.

Sorry, no peer reviewed studies available. I should have stated "Anecdotally confirmed as truth". Sorry for the broscience.
