Physical Exercise Reducing the Risk of Parkinson’s Disease

November 17th, 2007 | by admin | Moderate exercises or other recreational activities may reduce the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease, reported researchers at the American Academy of Neurology’s 59th Annual Meeting. Light exercises such as walking are not considered moderate exercise and have no positive effect regarding Parkinson’s disease.

The study’s participants had an average age of sixty and mere monitored for over ten years. About thirty percent of them developed Parkinson’s disease during that time. Researchers found that people who exercised half an hour or more every day lowered their risk of Parkinson’s disease.

However, something other than exercises may have also been responsible for lowering the risk of Parkinson’s disease, said Evan L. Thacker, the study’s lead author. Thacker stated that exercising has many benefits, so it doesn’t hurt to do moderate or vigorous exercise a few times a week.
