Manual Transmission Cars Help Prevent Dementia, According To New Study
According to Japan's Best Car Web, this new study comes to us from Professor Ryuta Kawashima (who helped develop Nintendo Brain Age games) of the Tohoku University’s Institute of Development, and it found that driving a manual transmission equipped car can actually stimulate the brain's prefrontal cortex in ways that an automatic cannot. Through his research, Kawashima discovered that the physical sequence of rowing through the gears is particularly stimulating for the region of the brain that controls things like attention, decision making, and memory.
