As a result, it was found that the risk of cardiovascular disease and cancer is reduced in those who exercise regularly. The minimum frequency of the activity to reduce the risk of illnesses caused by alcohol consumption, -. 150 minutes per week
The researchers emphasize that the state of health can be affected by other factors, such as nutrition. Nevertheless, our study, according to scientists, was an additional argument for regular exercise.
“Our results give additional argument in favor of physical activity as a means for health promotion and this despite the fact that the rest of the people can not lead a very healthy lifestyle.”, – The authors point out.
