There is ‘no limit’ to the benefits that can be gained in terms of heart health and reduced risk of cardiovascular disease from exercise, according to a new study.
The lowest risk of cardiovascular disease – such as a heart attack or stroke – is seen among people who are the most active, say Oxford University scientists.
Researchers studied 90,000 UK residents who had no prior cardiovascular disease and had them wear an accelerometer to measure their physical activity over a week.
