- Abstract
During the process of development and maturation, the human being goes through several transformations that establish a constant learning and involves acquisitions and losses of functions. Senelity is a pathological process that can arise with aging. Therefore, senelity affects the elderly, but some pathologies that appear in senility can also affect younger patients and are characterized by loss of memory capacity, attention deficit, incoherent speeches and disorientation. These deficits reflect the involvement of the formation of the hippocampus. When these are damaged, various capacities and skills can be affected. Objective: This project aims to assess the neuroprotective effect of regular physical activity on the evolution of the elderly's health. Method: evaluate the study based on a systematic review. Result: Through this study we were able to analyze the aging rate in some states in Brazil. Conclusion: From the results obtained, we saw that several factors do influence the quality of life of people in different states of a single country, which is why the importance of studies like these being constantly carried out by researchers.
