We all know the many benefits of exercise, and the evils of fast-food diet. Exercise makes us feel healthy, younger and more vital; while excess of double cheeseburgers gives the lethargic look with tired body. But how exactly does exercise lead to such benefits; and high fat diet lead to such deterioration?
Marissa Schafer and her colleagues at Mayo Clinic asked this simple, yet complex question. What they saw was that high-fat diet was increasing the proportion of senescent fat cells -- cells that are incapable of growing or diving. They saw that such cells were attracting immune system components, that could lead to adverse effects. Exercise on the other hand decreased the presence of such cells, excitingly even in the case of high-fat diet. So, if you have a hamburger, be sure to couple it with a 5k. To know more the exciting study, please listen to the interview with Marissa:
