| Popis: |
Regular physical activity is especially appropriate for hypertensive patients. Although its effect on individual blood pressure may be modest, its benefits at a population level are substantial. It is a method of choice for preventing hypertension. The levels of activity to be recommended remain uncertain, but intensive workouts are not required. Thirty minutes of brisk walking daily is beneficial. Benefits are not limited to blood pressure. Physical activity provides cardiovascular protection by reducing risk factors such as overweight and metabolic abnormalities. It also improves endothelial function, platelet activation and inflammatory response. More than simple physical exercise, we must promote the inclusion of healthy behavior into daily routines. |
