Fight Cold & Flu Season With Exercise

That's right, regular exercise will help to boost your immune system helping to prevent you from catching a cold and the flu this year.

 Here's what some of the research has shown:

  • Recreational exercisers reported fewer colds after beginning a regular exercise routine.
  • Moderate exercise creates a temporary boost in the production of macrophages, the cells that attack bacteria.
  • During exercise immune cells circulate through the body more quickly, which makes them better able to kill viruses and bacteria.
  • Dr. David Nieman, of Appalachian State University has found that those who exercise at 70-75 percent for 40 minutes per day have half as many sick days than those who don't.
