Relationship Between Activity Level and Skin Moisturizing Function in Older Adults: A Cross-Sectional Study

The results suggested a significant difference in horny skin water content between the low-and moderate/high-activity groups, indicating that exercise habits may enhance skin moisturization, possibly via increased skin blood flow, stress reduction, improved sleep, and increased collagen production. Exercise regimens may mitigate age-related decline in skin function, potentially offering a preventive strategy for skin dryness and related conditions in older adults.
