Washington [US], April 1 (ANI): Following a routine of regular physical activity combined with a diet including fruits, vegetables, and other healthy foods may be key to middle-aged adults achieving optimal cardiometabolic health later in life, suggested the findings of a new research.
The new research that used data from the Framingham Heart Study, was published in the Journal of the American Heart Association, an open-access journal of the American Heart Association.
Cardiometabolic health risk factors include metabolic syndrome, a cluster of disorders such as excess fat around the waist, insulin resistance, and high blood pressure. The presence of metabolic syndrome may increase the risk of developing heart disease, stroke, and Type 2 diabetes.

In women, but

Women specifically should prioritize building muscle mass over losing weight to improve their cardiovascular health, according to the study published in the
Journal of the American Heart Association.
