New Research Shows Exercise 'Recycles' Cells

We all agree that exercise is a beneficial activity that helps keep us looking and feeling great. Exercise can relax the mind and rejuvenate the body but we never really understood the science behind the long list of health benefits. A new study led by Dr. Beth Levine at Texas Southwestern Medical Centre reveals some key molecular findings that could reveal the reason why exercise is such a healthy activity. 

New Research: What may be happening on a molecular level when we exercise?

The study by Dr. Beth Levine at TSMC showed that a process called autophagy may be increasing as we exercise.

Simply put, autophagy is a process where damaged cells get "recycled" by breaking down each cell into components to redistribute nutrients to damaged cells.

This process maintains a balance in our cellular function and has been connected to fighting infections and mental illness
