Walking wards off stroke for women

Walking wards off stroke for women


    Women who devote at least three hours to walking every week are more likely to ward off strokes than their inactive cousins, says a study. “Regularly engaging in moderate recreational activity is good for your health,” said
Jose Maria Huerta of the Murcia Regional Health Authority in Spain, who led the study. The results for women who were regular walkers translated to a 43% reduction in stroke risk compared to the inactive group, Huerta said. IANS
