Can exercise really slow down aging?

In today's society, most people love sports, not only because they like it or for fitness, but also because they want to improve themselves and shape a beautiful body. Therefore, full-body fitness is imperative. At the same time, facial aging is an unstoppable trend in today's society, especially for young women it is simply a torment, so more and more people will look for various ways to change the status quo. So can exercise really slow down aging?

Regular aerobic exercise can delay aging. However, exercise is not the only way to slow down aging.

Aerobic exercises such as jogging can increase the body's oxygen consumption and promote metabolism. After entering middle age, the human body's maximum aerobic capacity begins to decline continuously, decreasing by about 5 ml every decade. When a man's maximum aerobic capacity drops below 18 ml and a woman's maximum aerobic capacity drops below 15 ml, increasing the amount of exercise will inevitably make people feel very tired.

Engaging in regular aerobic exercise can slow or reverse this relentless aging process, even in your later years.

Studies have found that long-term relatively high-intensity aerobic exercise can increase maximum aerobic capacity by 25%, or an increase of 6 ml, which is equivalent to subtracting 10 to 12 years of physiological age. There appears to be good evidence that maintaining maximal oxygen uptake at a certain level increases the likelihood that healthy older adults will maintain independence.

Researchers point out that the positive effects of aerobic exercise include: reducing the risk of serious illness; speeding up recovery after injury or illness; and reducing the risk of falls in the elderly by maintaining muscle strength, balance and coordination.

Maintaining a good attitude is the most important factor in delaying aging. As early as in ancient times, many health experts pointed out the relationship between a good mentality and health. Lao Tzu's sayings like "less selfishness and fewer desires", "reach the utmost emptiness and keep sincere tranquility", Zhuangzi's "if one is peaceful and tranquil, worries cannot enter and evil spirits cannot attack, so his virtue is complete and his spirit is not damaged" and Confucius' "the benevolent live long" and "those with great virtue will surely live long", all tell us the relationship between longevity and a good attitude.

2. Clear toxins from the intestines: There are many toxins in feces, some of which are junk food we eat daily, and some of which are garbage produced in the intestines. Keeping the bowels open can both detoxify and maintain beauty.

3. Remove toxins from the blood: If the free radicals in the human body cannot be discharged in time, they will damage normal cells and cause aging. Eating more foods containing antioxidants can remove free radicals in the blood in time. Various wastes are produced in the blood every day. If they are not removed in time, it will not only accelerate the aging of the body, but also cause hyperlipidemia and high blood pressure.
