We all know that exercise is one of the most important tools against heart disease, but now it appears that running for a long time increases the risk of heart disease.
A study from St Bartholomew's Hospital, St George's Hospital and Burt's Heart Center at University College London (UCL) claims that running is more beneficial for women than for men.
Studies have shown that men who regularly participate in sports such as marathons, Ironman triathlons, and cycling events have a heart that ages about 10 years beyond their actual age.
On the other hand, regular participation in sports like marathons improves women's health. Regular running reduces the age of women's heart by an average of six years.
The study was based on observations of runners over the age of 40. 300 plus runners participated in the study. Each of them participated in more than 10 races. Not only that, they have been practicing regularly for 10 years.
