Scientists from Shanghai Sports University found that exercise can reduce inflammation in the body in multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Research results published In Journal of Sport and Health Sciences (JSHS).
The new study by Chinese scientists is a systematic review of 87 previous scientific studies examining the effects of different types of exercise on markers of inflammation in the body in autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, type 1 diabetes and lupus erythematosus.
An analysis of studies showed that regular exercise in multiple sclerosis exerts an anti-inflammatory effect by increasing productivity, alertness, and alertness by reducing levels of C-reactive protein, interleukin (IL)-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α. mod. A similar effect has been seen in multiple sclerosis.
However, in conditions such as diabetes and lupus, the effect of exercise activity on inflammatory markers was less consistent; This suggested a complex relationship between exercise and autoimmune pathology.
Scientists noted that in terms of anti-inflammatory therapy, it is recommended to regularly combine various types of exercise, especially aerobic and strength training. Also, classes should not be tiring. Intense physical activity has a short-term pro-inflammatory effect. Moreover, they may even increase biomarkers of inflammation.
It was before named A type of exercise that is as effective as cardio in lowering blood pressure.
