If you don't already have a regular exercise routine, here is another of the thousands of reasons why you should start one: Exercise can restore youthfulness to your blood vessels, according to recent research. As we age, our blood vessels constrict and harden, often leading to heart troubles. But a study has found that this effect was greatly reduced in men who regularly exercises.

What's more, researchers have concluded that older adults who are sedentary only need to engage in moderate activity to see similar results. This is excellent news, and a very good reason to get moving, don't you think?
