Many people face health challenges as they age and sometimes feel like their body is breaking down. One possible reason for this could be senescent cells, which build up in our bodies as we get older and contribute to age-related disorders.
A recent study by Mayo Clinic shows that exercise and other physical activities can reduce the number of senescent cells.
There is no magic pill to reverse the aging process. But if you want to counter the biological mechanisms that drive age-related conditions, like the accumulation of senescent cells, you will need to exercise.
Many people tend to lead sedentary lifestyles when they age. But Dr. Nathan LeBrasseur says older adults should find ways to become more active throughout the day.
He says just adding 30 minutes of activity daily can be beneficial.
