Physical activity improves recovery from stress and creates conditions for neurogenesis:
The following proteins are produced in the body during physical activity and are involved in recovery processes:
- Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1)
- vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)
- Fibroblast growth factor (FGF).
All of these increase our brain's working potential. Scientists are still working on how to develop creativity through physical activity, identifying the most effective ones. However, there are already precedents. It is known, for example, that the theory of relativity was born in Einstein's head while riding a bicycle.
