You can use the timestamp column as other posters mentioned. Here is the SQL you can use to add the column in:
ALTER TABLE `table1` ADD `lastUpdated` TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ;
This adds a column called ‘lastUpdated’ with a default value of the current date/time. When that record is updated (lets say 5 minutes later) that timestamp will automatically update to the current time.
