A new study published in the magazine Nature shows that exercising produces a cleaning of body at a cellular level.

The cells accumulate garbage just for the everyday task: protein decomposed remains of cell membranes, some viruses or bacteria and other residues from battered cellular components accumulate at a microscopic level, although most of them are reabsorbed as fuel in a inefficient metabolic system that could result in the development of degenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, diabetes or even cancer.

The exercise itself is a stressful process for the body but affects metabolism in a way that improves the absorption of battered cells and therefore the result is a clean house at a cellular level.

This discovery helps to understand a bit more, how to have an active lifestyle improves the quality of life. Now you know that taking out the trash and go for a run are rather similar.
