4 Ways Exercise Boosts the Immune System:

  1. Improvement of cardiovascular health - which leads to better circulation. This allows billions of immune cells, the germ fighting substance of the immune system, to move more freely throughout the body. 

  2. Lower blood pressures - This allows your heart to be more efficient which leads to better circulation.

  3. Controls Body Fat - Obesity is characterized by a state of mild chronic inflammation. When the body is inflamed the immune system does not work as well as it becomes weakened.

  4. Decreases Mental Stress - Stress can decrease the ability of how our white blood cells multiply which leads us to being vulnerable to infections.
