A 2017 study by the university of Leicester is bad news for many drivers; spending more than two hours a day driving hurts you brain! One reason driving is bad is bad for you is because it's a sedentary activity, and being sedentary is hard on you overall health (particularly you cardiovascular system). But it turns out that driving also shut down your brain. Subjects in the study actually lost IQ points when they regularly drove long distances (such as daily commutes). People who did little or no driving had less decline in their cognitive powers. Researcher theorize that in addition to the sedentary problem associated with lost of driving, driving causes stress and fatigue, and then link between stress . fatigue and cognitive decline is fairly well established. If your daily commute requires two or more hours a day behind the wheel, it's time to move closer to your work -- or find new job, plus walk for a while take a break and walk for 15 minutes.
