SSM Conference 2015 1.7 - Endurance Sport and Cardio Vascular Health
- 5 years ago
Endurance Sport and Cardio Vascular Health
Professor Sanjay Sharma shares the fact that the cardiovascular benefits of exercise are established and individuals exercising regularly reduce their risk of adverse events from coronary artery disease by 50% and gain at least 3 additional years of life. When one considers the burgeoning epidemic of childhood obesity and its complications, exercise may be regarded as the most clinically and cost effective prescription dispensed by healthcare professionals.
