We all know the health benefits of regular exercise – calorie burning, weight loss and increased muscle tone. But did you know that a dedication to fitness can also show up on your face in the form of reduced signs of aging? It’s true, according to a recent article that appeared in The New York Times.
New research from McMaster University in Ontario suggests that exercise can prevent and delay signs of aging, as well as reverse it in certain instances. Researchers determined that after age 40, individuals who exercised frequently had “markedly thinner, healthier stratum corneum” (the exterior layer of skin) which resulted in a more youthful complexion. “Their skin was much closer in composition to that of the 20- and 30-year-olds than to that of others of their age, even if they were past age 65,” the article stated.
