Physical activity reduces the rate of cellular aging
The regular exercise plays an important role not only in maintaining physical health but also in slowing down the aging of cells. Scientific research increasingly supports this statement, as exercise not only helps preserve fitness but also increases the lifespan of cells. As a result of an active lifestyle, telomeres, which are protective caps located at the ends of chromosomes, can remain longer, thus serving to maintain the health of cells. Telomeres continuously shorten during cell division, and when they reach a certain length, cells can no longer divide, leading to cell death. Therefore, the length of telomeres plays a key role in aging processes. Research shows that regular exercise…
