Almost no one did 30 minutes.
Maybe we had one person that did 30 minutes.
Everybody else was in some range from nothing to 30.
And what we wanted to see, because we had these objective measures of attention, and in some cases, even brain metrics, we wanted to see, was there some point in that long range, in that broad range, where we could see if they do this much, we're starting to see that the brain and attention are looking like they're being benefited.
And if they do less, we're not seeing it.
Wow.
And that number was 12 minutes.
When people did 12 minutes or more, their attention was protected and strengthened.
And if they did less, it was not.
You're kidding.
In some ways, this makes sense to us, right?
So if I said, you know, there's going to be, you have to do 150 minutes of cardiovascular, it's moderate intensity exercise to benefit your heart.
If you say, I don't want to do 150 minutes, I'm going to go for a walk every now and then.
Is your heart going to benefit?
Probably not.
So there is something about reaching that sort of sweet spot of challenge and engagement that can do the trick.
What we did after that, because this was just happenstance, we found that 12 minutes wasn't, but that wasn't really a test.
We went on after that and we said, let's prescribe people 12 minutes.
Let's tell them to do 12 minutes.
Initially, we said, do 12 minutes, seven days a week.
