EXERCISE

Regular exercise reduces the chance of early death. Exercise helps with quality of life too, preventing chronic diseases, depression and frailty.

We’ve always had exercise as a miracle treatment, but we’ve been neglecting it for far too long. As a result, health is currently deteriorating.

Whatever your age, there is compelling scientific evidence that leading an active lifestyle can improve your overall health and happiness.

Regular exercisers are less likely to suffer from chronic diseases, including:

• Heart disease
• Type 2 diabetes
• Stroke
• Some types of malignancies

According to research, physical activity also lowers your chances of stress, clinical depression, dementia, and Alzheimer’s disease while boosting self-esteem, mood, sleep quality, and energy.

Exercise can boost your NAD levels, increase the size of your brain and in turn, boost your memory. It seems that interval training has superior health benefits to other types of exercise.
