According to a new study published in Gut Microbes,
Scientists from the University of Nottingham(UK) conducted a study that demonstrated the benefits of exercise for a range of health conditions. These experts include cancer, heart disease, arthritis. All data obtained during the experiments are published in the publication Gut Microbes.
The study involved 78 people with arthritis.Of these, 40 did not exercise for six weeks, and 38 did 15 minutes of exercise. As a result, the following became clear. Those who played sports were experiencing less pain by the end of the study, had higher levels of microbes in the gut, which are responsible for the production of anti-inflammatory substances, as well as fewer cytokines and more endocannabinoids.
As scientists have found, an increase in the number ofendocannabinoids have been shown to be closely related to changes in gut microbes and anti-inflammatory substances. At least a third of the anti-inflammatory effects of the gut microbiome (these are all microorganisms found in the gut) have been associated with an increase in the number of endocannabinoids.
It was also previously known that exercise can reduce chronic inflammation that leads to cancer, arthritis, and heart disease.
