Exercising while young reduces risk of death in later life: Study

(Before It's News)

Benefits of exercise are well known but a new study suggests that if you exercised in your youth, you can reduce your risk of death in later life.

Researchers from the Vanderbilt Epidemiology Center examined 75,000 women aged 40 to 70 from the Shanghai’s Women’s Health Study. The study included baseline information for the women including their level of activity in their adolescent years (13 to 19).

After a nearly 12 year follow-up there were 5,282 deaths reported – 2,375 from cancer and 1,620 from cardiovascular disease.

Results were adjusted for socioeconomic factors where the researchers uncovered that those women who exercised in their adolescent years for at least 1.33 hours a week or less lowered their risk of death by cancer by 16 percent.
