Hello to all our readers, at this point we know that sport is highly beneficial in preventing certain diseases that not everyone suffers, but what about diseases that we go through every year such as constipation or diseases caused by viruses?
This type of disease is produced by the lowering of defenses, their absence or very strong viruses.
In this post we are going to talk about the benefits of exercising our defenses.
The state of our defenses depends on many factors and not all of them can be controlled, such as changes in season or age. However, other factors if we can control them, such as the lifestyle we lead: food, tobacco, stress, sedentary lifestyle.
These factors can be improved by having a healthy lifestyle where food and physical activity are the fundamental pillars.
To help your defenses, we recommend moderate physical exercise 5 to 7 days a week, activities such as walking, running, dancing, cycling, guided classes or swimming.
The benefits they bring us are the following:
- Activates metabolism. By doing physical exercise the body burns fat to make energy for movement, this improves the conditions for the immune system to function.
- Antioxidant effect. We have all heard of antioxidant processes, because sport helps this process by producing enzymes that mainly help immune cells
- Release of hormones such as adrenaline or growth hormone that facilitates the activation of the immune system.
- Remove stress. As we have already said stress is a risk factor for our defenses, when doing physical activity we produce endorphins that provide us with well-being.
- Improves blood circulation and therefore the circulation of white blood cells, which are responsible for protecting our body.
