  • As we age, our immune system weakens. After age 65, the mortality rate from infections is 3-4x’s greater. One key physiological change that impacts our immune system as we age is the shrinkage of the thymus, a principle immune system structure. As the thymus atrophies, our T-cell production becomes impaired. T-cells play a critical role in fighting against foreign substances (i.e., bacteria). 

💦 🌊 💧 
One of the best ways to boost our #immunesystem as we age is to engage in physical activity, which increases proliferation of T-cells in the thymus. 

Physical activity is anything that gets your body moving. Each week adults need 150 minutes of moderate-intensity (ex: brisk walking) physical activity and 2 days of muscle strengthening activity.

  • …we experience many changes in our cardiovascular system. Our arteries stiffen and our heart increases in size, contributing to increased blood pressure and decreased blood flow. This also increases receptivity to free radicals such as LDL cholesterol. These changes increase our need for oxygen while impairing our supply of oxygen. Over time, this may result in a cardiac event such as heart attack.

💧💧💧
One of the best ways to combat the effects of aging on your cardiovascular system is to engage in physical activity. Exercise forces your heart to pump more blood around your body to your muscles and lungs. This relaxes blood vessels over time and makes your heart run more efficiently, both of which lower blood pressure. 

Physical activity is anything that gets your body moving. Each week adults need 150 minutes of moderate-intensity (ex: brisk walking) physical activity and 2 days of muscle strengthening activity.
