Physical inactivity: a cardiovascular risk factor.

Indian journal of medical sciences - 1 Jan 2009

Prasad D S, Das B C

Abstract excerpt

Evidence regarding health benefits of physical activity is overwhelming and plays a critical role in both the primary and secondary prevention of coronary artery disease (CAD). Epidemiological investigations show approximately half the incidence of CAD in active compared to sedentary persons. A sedentary lifestyle is considered by various national and international organizations to be one of the most important...
