A stroke can affect balance, vision, memory, speech, and cognition, and other complications including temporary or permanent paralysis on one side of the body. When a comes to the topic of strokes, wellness and exercise are key components for prevention and rehabilitation. The CDC recommends that adults get 2 hours and 30 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic physical activity, such as a brisk walk, each week.
