Exercise restores blood vessels

Healthy Aging, Fitness, Celebs & Entertainment

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.
