Is it true that Gesturing reduces cognitive load during speaking?

Yes. A peer-reviewed study reports that gesturing lightens cognitive load while speakers think of what to say, with adults and children remembering more items when gesturing during math explanations. A citation list also references work finding gestures lighten working memory load.
