If Exercise Were a Pill
If Exercise were a pharmaceutical pill, it would create a multi-trillion dollar conglomerate & every doctor in the world would be prescribing it. It would create better insulin sensitivity, reduce stress, improve brain health, reduce & even reversing chronic disease, enhance detoxification, slow the aging process & improve sexual function, ALL in one!!! It has even been demonstrated that one to two hours of exercise a week in adults can prevent depression. Here's a paper published in the American Journal of psychiatry in 2017 elaborated on an 11 year study on almost 34,000 people that proved this: (https://ajp.psychiatryonline.org/doi/full/10.1176/appi.ajp.2017.16111223) In this episode, we talk about some of the latest & greatest findings in the field of exercise science. I mention a study in this episode that absolutely blew away the world. It was a 2018 large-scale study of more than 100,000 patients by the Harvard School of Public Health. It found that those who chose to eat a healthy diet rich in vegetables, exercise at least 30 minutes a day, maintain a healthy body weight, limit their alcohol use, & chose not to smoke during adulthood, had an 82% lower risk of dying from cardiovascular disease, a 65% lower chance of dying from cancer, and a 74% lower risk of dying from all causes during follow-up. Here's the link to this study: (https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/press-releases/five-healthy-lifestyle-habits/).    Exercise has also been shown to improve the heart's ejection fraction:  https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6445773/ This was a quick 10 minute episode that was inspired by my attending physician on this month's hospital service, thank you Dr. Eukesh Ranjit.  If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe to our podcast & rate it 5 stars on iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/medspiration/id1440527968 Tag @medspiration in your stories on IG & please share with us your favorite parts of this podcast, I’ll be sure to feature you & write back!!!  MEDspiration is a 501c3 (47-3028584) public benefit nonprofit organization.
