But the regular walking contribution of reduced risk of atherosclerosis in the younger and older elderly have been lacking, probably due to the effectiveness of medication in reduced cholesterol build up on the inner wall of arteries.
Atherosclerosis is a condition of hardening and narrowing of the arteries as a result of plaques of fatty cholesterol on the inner wall, leading to reduce oxygen-rich blood flow to the organs and other parts of the body.
According to the joint study led by the University of Shizuoka, off-site walking program of a prospective, 12-week, randomized and controlled study of Fifty-two women aged 32 to 57 years suggested, the program may decrease fibrinogen levels which were found to be a trigger cardiac events in patients with atherosclerosis(3).
In fact, regular leg exercise not only reduced the complications of patients with atherosclerosis(3) but also induced expansive arterial remodeling in corresponding improvements in risk factors for atherosclerosis in healthy men of different ages(4). Dr. Rauramaa R and colleagues in a randomized clinical trial in overweight men insisted that regular exercise (walking to slow jogging) significantly inhibited secondary platelet aggregation from 27% to 36% of that induced protective effects in the initiation of atherosclerosis(5).
Dr. Kovacić L said, "The criteria for physical active person were walking three times a week for 30 minutes at least .... in the prevention of many health problems, like obesity, arterial hypertension, diabetes, heart diseases, atherosclerosis, osteoporosis and others"(2).
In support of regular exercise in lowering the risk of Atherosclerosis, Dr. Ali Al-Mamari said, "physical activity has been recognized as a preventive measure for atherosclerosis" and " moderately vigorous exercise resulted in a substantial reduction in mortality from all causes by 23% and from CHD by 41% compared with sedentary classmates.59 Maintaining or increasing physical activity level in late middle age was associated with a reduction in mortality rates, and light activities appeared to be sufficient to produce this benefit in older men"(6), probably due to its contribution in the reduced abnormalities in lipid and lipoprotein metabolism(7) and serum TG concentration(8).
