Even a simple habit of getting up more often than a chair can have a positive effect on heart's health, especially with post-trampan women. This conclusion was scientists from the University of California, San Diego. The work was published in the Circulation magazine.
The study took part in post-arresting women who are more likely to die for cardiovascular disease, diabetes and premature death. Participants were divided into three groups. The first tried to sit down less, the second, more often, to the chair, and the third served as a controller group.
During three months, the women of the second group have begun to get up 25 times a day, which has led to diastolic pressure 2.24 mm S.S. decrease compared to a supervisory group. Although this difference has not reached a significantly significant threshold (3-5 mm of SS), it has shown that even a small change in habits can have a positive impact on the body.
"We often say that we need to sit less, but they do not explain how to do it. "We found that even short breaks to stop without sitting overall time, they can contribute to vascular health," said Professor Sherry.
There was no effect on the blood pressure on the blood, and the authors note that you need a more long consistency to see a more significant impact. They are now planning a larger study that will include older men and women.
