Cardiologist Yulia Kondalskaya: to slow down aging, you need to avoid stress 
To slow down the aging process, you need to avoid stress. This was stated by cardiologist Yulia Kondalskaya, her words are quoted by Gazeta.Ru.
The specialist said that hugs, sex, delicious food, communication with children, good sleep and healthy food will help to avoid stress. According to her, the rate of negative age-related changes is influenced by a sluggish and difficult-to-diagnose inflammatory process.
“Due to the constant nature of the impact of stress factors, such inflammation is considered chronic, practically does not manifest itself externally and has a blurred clinical picture,” she explained Russian cardiologist.
The consequence of such inflammation is age-related changes in the immune system, which implies an imbalance in the balance of reactive oxygen species in the cells. Because of this, the destructive processes in the body are accelerated, the doctor explained. She added that this can be avoided by diagnosing inflammation.
Earlier, Olga Tkacheva, the chief freelance geriatrician of the Ministry of Health, explained the effect of COVID-19 on aging. According to her, the coronavirus passes in the elderly into a long post-ovid syndrome and thereby accelerates the aging process.
