Does exercise slow aging?

Is it real that exercise slows down aging?  In general, we know that exercising is good for us. It is one of the most shared ideas we have. And no, **it is not a myth. **The problem is that we are not always so motivated to do it. We know that it is good for our hearts, that it helps us lose weight and countless things. But what we sometimes don’t know is exactly how those benefits work.  Wow, we know it’s good, but we don’t know why. Well, today we are going to talk to you about one of its most interesting benefits. For all that is understood about the benefits of exercise, a direct link between doing so and aging has remained out of the public domain. That is, not many know him. But research published in Cell Metabolism showed that different forms of exercise can slow down the aging process.

High intensity exercise

Scientists have discovered that exercising at intervals helps cells function like “younger” versions of themselves. Essentially slowing or even reversing your aging. Interval exercise causes cells to create more proteins that allow them to produce energy and develop muscle. The same research also found that high-intensity cardio offers some of the same benefits. Another study by researchers at the University of Mississippi and the University of California, San Francisco, suggests that any form of exercise, from walking your dog to running marathons, is associated with an overall reduction in cellular aging. The more you exercise, the greater the benefit. There is still a lot to learn about exercise and the aging process. But it is becoming increasingly clear that keeping your body active every day has the ability to help slow aging.
