Prevent Hypertension by physical activity

Physical activity should be considered for preventing hypertension in young adults. Based on the research done at the University of Minnesota, science daily reports that young adults who spend more time in physical activity have reduced risk of developing high blood pressure.

The present generation can be referred as a generation of “sitters” – we sit in the private or public transport to go to place of work, sit through the day for studies or work, sit again to come back to home only to sit in front of TV! Blessed are those who do not fall in to this pattern. Things were different, a few decades back when some kind of physical activity was in built in the day to day activities.

The study found that young adults who exercised an average of five times a week and expended 300 calories per exercise session experienced a 17 percent reduction in the risk of developing hypertension.

So have exercise or physical activity a part of daily routine .Life can be more beautiful!
