慢性發炎恐加速老化!醫:掌握2關鍵,運動成抗發炎處方

Quick Look

科博特診所院長劉博仁指出,慢性低度發炎與多種疾病及老化有關。研究顯示規律的有氧運動與阻力訓練能有效改善發炎指標。他強調,對中高齡族群而言,運動抗發炎的關鍵在於「規律」與「長期執行」,而非強度越高越好。

Why It Matters

慢性低度發炎與心血管疾病、糖尿病、肌少症及老化速度密切相關。研究證實肌肉在運動時會分泌肌肉激素(myokines)來調節免疫與代謝反應。

發炎未必紅、腫、熱、痛,也不是只能靠飲食改善或藥物治療。科博特診所院長劉博仁表示,隨著年紀增長,身體可能出現不一定會發燒、疼痛的慢性低度發炎,卻可能與心血管疾病、糖尿病、肌少症、衰弱甚至老化速度有關。研究顯示,規律運動有助改善部分慢性發炎;不過,他也提醒,並非運動越激烈,抗發炎效果就越好,尤其對中高齡族群來說,真正重要的是規律做、長期做。

劉博仁於臉書粉專發文表示,2026年一篇網絡統合分析整理55個隨機對照試驗、3516位中高齡成人,比較不同運動方式對發炎指標的影響。結果發現,規律運動確實能改善部分慢性發炎指標,其中阻力訓練對CRP下降的表現突出;有氧運動則對IL-6與TNF-α等發炎相關指標有所改善。

此外,2026年8月另一篇針對60歲以上成人的網絡統合分析,納入54個隨機試驗、2836人,同樣發現運動的抗發炎效益。其中有氧運動對CRP的改善較穩定,阻力訓練也有明顯幫助。因此,劉博仁認為,可將運動想像成一種「不靠藥物的抗發炎處方」。

為什麼運動能影響發炎?劉博仁說,其中一個原因是,肌肉在運動時不是只負責收縮,它其實也是一個會分泌訊號分子的器官。當肌肉規律活動時,會釋放一些myokines,也就是肌肉激素,幫助調節免疫、代謝與發炎反應。此外,運動可改善胰島素敏感性、降低內臟脂肪、改善睡眠與自律神經,也會間接減少慢性發炎。

不過,並非運動越激烈,抗發炎效果就一定越好。劉博仁提醒,對中高齡族群而言,真正重要的是「規律」以及「可以長期做」。有氧運動可選擇快走、騎腳踏車或游泳;阻力訓練則可從深蹲、彈力帶、啞鈴,甚至坐站訓練開始。好的運動計畫不是只做單一種類,而是逐步把有氧、肌力和平衡訓練融入生活。

劉博仁建議,可從每週累積約150分鐘中等強度有氧運動,加上每週至少2次肌力訓練開始;若年紀較大、很久沒有運動,或本身有心血管疾病、關節問題,仍應依個人狀況調整。他強調,運動的價值不只是消耗熱量,持續讓肌肉、心肺與代謝系統保持活性,長期安靜的低度發炎也可能跟著下降。
