Exercise improves health markers in young female survivors of childhood trauma

New research shows a progressive exercise training program mitigates some physiological and psychological effects of adverse childhood experiences (ACE) in otherwise healthy young women. These experiences are linked to "lasting, negative effects on health, well-being, as well as life opportunities," according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The study will be presented this week at the American Physiological Society annual meeting at Experimental Biology (EB) 2022.
