E 'an article a little old but worth reading!
New York, August 24 - People who take even moderately fit as the years pass, can ensure a longer life than those who are completely inactive with age. New Zealand says a new study, conducted on nearly 4,400 healthy adults.
Scientists have found that people who are neither in physical activity (about 20% of the total) were twice as likely to die in the next nine years compared to individuals even just a little bit more active. "Our results suggest that a sedentary lifestyle, rather than differences in cardiovascular risk factors or age, can explain mortality rates double in sedentary individuals compared to slightly more active, 'says lead researcher Dr. Sandra Mandic, University of Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand.
Scholars point out that the minimum recommended physical activity is 30 minutes, corresponding for example brisk walking, five or more times a week. Two-thirds of the most sedentary of the study were not even that emphasizes the Mandic. "We need to maintain a certain level of fitness doing regular physical activity," according to the researcher.
The study, published by Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, has included 4,384 women and men of middle age or elderly were tested at the beginning of their fitness levels and, according to the training, participants were divided into five groups. The follow-up lasted from 1986 to 2006. During this period all persons trained less (fourth) died, compared with 13% of those only slightly better shape.
In the group of adults in better shape, only 6% died during the study.
