We are the embodiment of the health of our cells, so when our cells are strong and healthy, so are we. But how can we work to provide a healthy environment for our cells to function and thrive? There are some key elements that you can focus on in your everyday life that can serve to improve cellular function and performance. In today’s blog, we take a closer look at the four keys to enhanced cellular health.
What Drives Cellular Health?
There are a few things you’ll want to do on a daily or regular basis that can serve to improve the short term and long term health of your cells. Here are four key factors that can influence the health of your cells:
- Physical Activity – Getting regular exercise or physical activity is incredibly important for the health of your cells. Exercise has been shown to improve the function and energy output of the mitochondria – the powerhouse of your cells. When your cells are more energized, they can perform crucial functions more easily. Exercise has also been shown to help improve cellular immunity, which in turn works to keep your body healthy.
- Sleep – Quality sleep is also incredibly important for your cell health. Sleep is a time when your body and your cells work to rid themselves from waste products that are a byproduct of cellular functions. If these waste products are efficiently removed, they can linger and negatively affect a number of cellular processes. Sleep is also a time when cellular repair processes are happening, so quality sleep ensures that cells have the necessary time to recover from the stress that was put on them during the day. Improve your sleep to improve your cell health.
- Nutrition – Your diet also plays a big role in the health of your cells. What you put into your body has a big impact on your cells’ ability to replicate properly and make new bodily tissues that are needed to replace daily damage or build new muscle. Similar to regular exercise, nutrition is vitally important for cellular immunity. When your cells have access to a wide range of healthy nutrients, they are better at helping your body fight off bacteria and foreign invaders. Fuel cellular activity and function with an improved diet.
- Mindfulness – Finally, one last thing you’ll want to do for your cell health on a regular basis is practice some mindfulness. As we’ve talked about on the blog in the past, stress can have a significant impact on the health of your cells, and one of the best ways to reduce oxidative stress is by practicing some mindfulness techniques. Activities like meditation, yoga or deep breathing exercises can help to eliminate stress that can serve to inhibit healthy cellular function. Take some time each day to relax and find some healthy ways to manage the stress you deal with on a regular basis.
