Abstract :

 Aging is a natural and physiological process influenced by so many factors such as intrinsic factors, extrinsic factors and disease. For healthy ageing healthy dietary and exercise habits may be used. Besides healthy balanced diet and psychosocial well–being, the benefits of physical activities and regular exercise on mortality and the prevention of chronic disease that affects both life expectancy and quality of life are well established. The purpose of this article is to throw some rays on how physical activity and regular exercise slows down the natural process of aging. There is encouraging evidence that moderate levels of exercise and physical activity may provide protection from certain chronic diseases and thus slowing down aging process effectively.
