A Japanese expert has confirmed that the feeling of aging is a sign of a lack of physical activity necessary to rejuvenate the body, noting that the rise of remote work since the outbreak of the coronavirus has exacerbated the crisis. He emphasized that there are a number of exercises that help slow down aging.
Professor Hiroshi Hiraiizumi stated in a press interview that lack of activity in body parts leads to early aging. He explained that many people are now suffering from unexpected body pains due to remote work, clarifying that the vertical muscles extending from the waist to the front of the hip joint, as well as back muscles, become stiff and put pressure on the lower back.
The Japanese expert recommended beginning the fight against body “rust” by engaging in regular stretching exercises, particularly for the back and neck. Hiraiizumi also mentioned that doing some exercises before starting any activity improves blood circulation and helps nourish the muscles, which in turn helps slow the aging process.
In addition to the Japanese advice, doctors and nutrition experts recommend a high daily intake of omega-3 supplements, which may also help slow the aging effects by suppressing damage and enhancing cellular protection during and after stressful events. According to a recent American study, omega-3 supplements contribute to what researchers call stress resistance, which is about reducing damage during stress, after acute stress, and protecting cellular components that shrink due to aging.
