cardio exercise reduces the risk of breast cancer

For women’s health, one of the best ways to start working out is by doing cardio exercises.

Cardio could be running, biking, swimming or just long walks at a brisk pace.

Cardio exercises such as running, whether outside or on a treadmill, help manage and control body weight and reduce the risk of chronic disease and illness.

Cardio exercises are best when you do them 3-4 times a week for a minimum of 20-30 minutes during each workout.

A good example is by starting off walking at a slow to normal pace. Once you free from discomfort, you can slowly increase the pace.


Research has shown that cardio exercise reduces the risk of breast cancer almost by 20 percent

Actually, health and medications are very closely related to each other. We need to be aware of the consequences of the heart problems that we generally face. I am 54 year old. I gained lot of weight in past 10 years, and I got a distinguishable tummy. I was already having diabetes, but was bit careless as I was mostly concentrating in my business. This carelessness cost me heavily in future. As I was gaining the weight, at the same time, I was unable to balance my cholesterol level. It used to fluctuate heavily. But because of my carelessness, I wasn’t attentive to my health issues, as they were creating hindrance to my work. But at some extreme points, one day I felt some hard beatings on my heart. Suddenly, my heart used to pump vigorously. And there was no point happening that as I was not doing any stressful or physical work. I was really frightened with the amount of beats it was pumping. It would have been almost double and that also quite hard. I felt dizzy, and suddenly caught a severe headache. And especially, I was having a great amount of pain on my left wrist. I was really helpless at that time. There were no people around, no phone, no one to be called. The only thing that I was able to do was to try to be calm and wait for any help. Somehow, I managed to survive that day. But from that day I was really conscious about the health. That moment was like an alarming signal for something very deadly to happen. I immediately consulted a physician in Los Angeles, where I was staying because of some business work. They suggested me to have some basic cardio test like ECG, etc. I got those test at Elite Health medical office in Los Angeles. It came to me as a shock that I need to have my advance test, as the cardiologist doubted to have a blockage in one of the ventricle. Then they took my advance tests like stress test, Echo cardiogram and MRI. The result was that I was having a 60% blockage in one of the left ventricle, and was in the danger of having heart attack. I was astonished to hear that. Then I got the medications and operations after 3 months. Then I got enrolled in one of the wellness program from same elite health where they used to monitor my health issues round the clock. You can find some more info from www.elitehealth.com/executive_corporate_programs.php. Right now I am quite healthy, taking a lot amount of care regarding the diabetes and heart issues. My weight is also under my control now with the help of reality diet program where the doctors of elite health discuss my current health status and recommend steps for improving my health and dietary habits.
