How to jog to recharge your body

　　Walking, running, and jogging are the simplest and most ideal forms of exercise in the world. They can constantly "charge" the body and ensure that our body and mind are healthy. healthy . This is not alarmist.

　　1. Brain: Exercise activates brain thinking

　　Regular exercise can help you use your brain and activate your thinking. Active movement of human muscles can send out messages, prompting the human brain to produce a protein, which is named brain-derived in medicine. nerve Nutritional factor BDNF. The body needs this protein to promote new nerve growth and establish connections between nerves. When a person reaches middle age, if he exercises for 40 minutes twice a week, the chance of developing Alzheimer's disease can be reduced by about 60%.

　　2. Heart: Jogging treats high blood pressure

　　When jogging, the heart beats faster to supply oxygen-rich blood to the working muscles. If a person runs frequently, the load that the heart can bear will increase. In this way, even if the body is in a non-exercise state, the heart can transport more blood with each beat, and all cells in the human body can receive a better supply of oxygen. When the body exercises, it can normalize blood pressure by reducing weight and reducing stress response hormones in the blood. For patients with mild hypertension, active exercise can help them take less medicine!

　　three, skin : Exercise increases heart blood circulation

　　During exercise, the "pumping" speed of the heart increases, blood circulation is improved and more oxygen is input, thereby delivering more nutrients to the cells, making the skin rosy. As research studies by psychologists at Uni St. Andrews in the UK have shown, exercise can make people look radiant and energetic!

　　4. Lungs: Jogging increases lung capacity

　　When running, your muscles consume a lot of oxygen in a short period of time, so exercise The human body learns to take in more oxygen while at rest. Studies have shown that jogging for 30 minutes every day can expand lung volume (vital capacity) by 1/3 and improve the blood's ability to combine oxygen.

　　5. Intestine: exercise relief constipate

　　Sports and physical labor can help the parasympathetic nerves stimulate the intestinal digestive system. Too little exercise is the main cause of constipation. Physicians recommend that patients with constipation should not rush to seek laxatives. They might as well engage in physical exercise for at least 30 minutes every day to promote intestinal peristalsis and relieve the pain of constipation!

　　6. Abdomen: Exercise to treat diabetes

　　The brain sends messages when the human body performs sports and physical labor to consume the fat layer in the abdomen. Medical research has confirmed that this is a good way to reduce the risk of diabetes. Because fat cells release substances that interfere with insulin production, regular physical exercise has become an "over-the-counter" treatment for mild type II diabetes.

　　7. Joints: Running reduces the burden on joints

　　The nutrients of articular cartilage do not come from blood vessels, but from the joint synovial fluid produced by the cells in the upper layer of cartilage. The reason why jogging can supply sufficient synovial fluid to the knee and hip joints is because the human body prompts the cartilage to "suck" the synovial fluid in the joints with every step of running, and then press it out again. In addition, regular running can help reduce the burden on the thigh joints because the strengthened muscle tissue can better support the joints.
