    How Exercise Can Mitigate Physiological Aging: Strategies for a Healthier Life
    (Behi Academy Publications, 2024) Ahmadpour, Maedeh; Eken, Özgür
    Regular physical activity plays a crucial role in mitigating the physiological effects of aging, promoting a healthier and more active lifestyle for older adults. This narrative review explores the multifaceted benefits of exercise, highlighting its impact on various physiological systems and its potential to enhance overall well-being. Aging is characterized by a decline in muscle mass, cardiovascular function, and cognitive abilities, often leading to increased frailty and chronic health conditions. However, engaging in regular aerobic, resistance, and flexibility training can counteract these age-related changes. Exercise has been shown to improve muscle strength, enhance cardiovascular health, and support cognitive function, thereby reducing the risk of dementia and other cognitive impairments. Furthermore, the biological mechanisms underlying these benefits include reductions in oxidative stress and inflammation, improved hormonal balance, and enhanced telomere integrity. Practical strategies for incorporating exercise into daily routines are essential for older adults, emphasizing the importance of starting gradually, choosing enjoyable activities, and fostering social connections through group exercises. By prioritizing physical activity, individuals can significantly improve their quality of life and longevity, ultimately redefining the aging process as one that can be actively managed through lifestyle choices. © 2024, Vesnu Publications.
