Why is my short-term memory bad?

A lack of oxygen to the brain can affect short-term memory. Alcohol and drug abuse, concussions and other trauma to the head can impact short-term memory. Medical conditions such as seizures, epilepsy, heart bypass surgery and depression can also impact short-term memory.

What type of exercise is best for memory?

Aerobic exercise, like running and swimming, appears to be best for brain health.
