Manual Transmission Driving Superior for Brain Health, Says Brain Training Professor

Professor Ryuta Kawashima, renowned for Nintendo's Brain Age and Dr. Kawashima’s Brain Training series, reveals driving a manual transmission car benefits the brain, potentially preventing dementia. His study shows manual driving activates the prefrontal cortex more than automatics, enhancing memory, decision-making, and attention. Engaging in such activities can contribute to maintaining mental health and cognitive function, especially in aging populations.
