BET has been shown to increase oxygenation in the prefrontal cortex (PFC), a brain region critical for executive functions such as decision-making, attention, and problem-solving.
Effects include:
Enhanced Neural Activity: Increased oxygenation supports higher levels of neural activity, improving cognitive processing capabilities.
Improved Executive Functions: Better PFC function leads to enhanced cognitive control, allowing individuals to maintain performance under fatigue.
Delayed Mental Fatigue: By strengthening PFC function, BET helps delay the onset of mental fatigue during demanding tasks.
Efficient Neural Processing: Increased oxygenation may lead to more efficient neural pathways, reducing the mental effort required to perform tasks.
These changes contribute to the overall improvements in cognitive and physical performance observed following BET.
