Nursing exercises help increase resistance to shingles
According to researchers, exercising, a type of exercise with slow movements, can help increase resistance in older people and increase the effectiveness of vaccines to prevent shingles. .
Researchers found that yogis, a type of Chinese martial arts that was 2,000 years ago, was westernized, could help improve the immune system in older people to combat rash. Viral blisters are similar to the virus that causes chickenpox.
When a combination of nursing exercises - including a series of movements - with immunization against shingles, resistance in older patients reaches the level commonly seen in young people.
Professor Michael Irwin, lead author of the study at the University of California in Los Angeles (UCLA), said: 'These are interesting findings because the validation results can also be applied to other infections. like flu and pneumonia. '

Shingles caused by varicella zoster virus. People with chickenpox as a child are often prone to shingles later. The virus can remain dormant in the body, and when the immune system becomes weak when our age is higher, it can cause shingles, which can make us very painful and often last from 3 to 5 weeks.
According to researchers, about one-third of people over 60 will get shingles.
In a study published in the April issue of the American Geriatrics Society, Professor Irwin and his team compared 112 elderly people to nursing students once a week three times within 16 weeks with people. only attend health education classes.
Both groups have been vaccinated against shingles. At the end of this 25-week study, the level of immunity of the group who did the exercise was two times higher than the other group. The physical and mental function of the nursing team is also better.
