Abstract

Aim. To establish the effect of physical activity on the immune system. Materials and methods: the study provides a retrospective review of Russian and foreign scientific publications from electronic databases, namely PubMed, Google scholar, Cyberleninka, and eLibrary, about the effect of physical activity on the immune system. The results obtained were subject to analysis, systemic representation, and summary. Results. The study shows that regular, moderate-intensity physical activity maintains and enhances the performance of the immune system. Physical activity should be considered to prevent the development of a number of somatic diseases. Conclusion. Physical activity is a biological stimulus that contributes to the morphofunctional development of organs and systems in the human body.
