Fitness is the Most Important
Factor in Longevity Equation
"Poor physical fitness is a
better predictor of death than a host of other documented and widely feared
health risk factors." Washington Post
"The most important thing you
can do to live a long life, buy a good pair of sneakers and use them" San
Jose News
A new study in The New England
Journal of Medicine (NEJM), shows that one's level of fitness has more to do
with longevity than that of a host of other factors, including smoking, high
cholesterol, high blood pressure, history of heart attacks, emphysema,
etc.
In a study of 6,213 men they
found that the individuals chances of remaining alive increased by 12% with each
increase of exercise intensity. The findings are believed to be applicable
to women.
Remember, "Don't dream
up thousands of reasons why you can't do what you want to; find one reason why
you can."
Have a Healthy Day,
