Lack of exercise kills one-tenth of the world’s dead population

CNN reports: A series of studies, according to the British magazine "The Lancet" published shows that lack of exercise lead to death accounted for one-tenth of global deaths, and the harm it with smoking, obesity-induced side by side. The study also suggests that public health officials should view this as an epidemic. Harvard University researchers say, more specifically, in 2008 due to lack of exercise lead to coronary heart disease worldwide, and type II diabetes, colon cancer and breast cancer deaths have increased more than 530 million people.

They said that if the global lack of exercise rate decreased by 10% --20%, then you can save 500000-130 million lives each year, but also will increase the life expectancy of the world the last couple of years old.

  "This summer we will appreciate the athletes performing at the 2012 Olympic Games"   One of the main authors of the series of research reports, Dr. Li Aimin, a researcher at Harvard University, wrote that “although only a very small number of people have reached the level of Olympic athletes, the vast majority of people are able to exercise moderately, which is also very beneficial to health.”

The series of studies is divided into five topics, and the study will be published a few days before the opening of the 2012 London Olympics next week . Each study is related to the lack of exercise and its impact on human health.

Increased prevalence of adults and children

The first group of five studies reported that one-third of adults and nearly 80% of adolescents worldwide have an increased risk of disease due to lack of exercise.

According to the report, nearly 1.5 billion people worldwide suffer from heart disease, and the risk of diabetes and certain cancers increases by 20 % to 30 %.   .

The researchers also found that the lack of exercise varies widely among countries, with Bangladesh being at least 5% and Malta at the highest, reaching 71% .

“In most countries, the lack of exercise rates increases with age, and women are higher than men ( 34 % vs. 28 %), ” wrote Dr. Pedro C. Harald, a professor at the Federal University of Perotas , Brazil . “   The lack of exercise rates has also increased in high-income countries. ”

Why do some people stick to exercise?

The second group of research reports believes that some people and some people can exercise, while others do not like sports.

The researchers found that previous studies have focused on individual factors in high-income countries, such as age, gender, and socioeconomic status. However, they suggested that the focus of future research should be on low- and middle-income countries.

“The research is mainly concentrated in a few developed countries, where the prevalence of noncommunicable diseases has stabilized or declined, while low-income countries have insufficient understanding of the policies for strengthening fitness and prevention and treatment of diseases related to evidence-based medicine,” Australia researchers at the University of Sydney, Adrian Bauman wrote, "to develop effective preventive measures against factors that lead to lack of exercise is to increase physical activity, increase physical activity is particularly important."

Bowman and his colleagues found that healthy, young, male and wealthy people tend to exercise more with family and social support.

What sports are good for health

The third group published in the "The Blades" magazine series specifically studies those sports that are good for health.

Gregory Heath, a researcher at the University of Tennessee and the lead author of the study, wrote that even moderate physical activity, such as walking and cycling, is good for health, and that these strategies can be used in different regions and people with different cultural backgrounds. In order to strengthen these healthy behaviors, the concept of public health priority can be established.

Heath and his team found that using mass media campaigns to promote active participation in fitness and the addition of fitness campaigns—such as climbing stairs—will affect people's participation in more sports.

The team also found that free public fitness campaigns and the construction of new fitness venues (such as bicycle lanes and walking trails) can promote public fitness and improve public transport to promote fitness.

  “Overall, our research shows that these administrative measures have a lasting and significant effect on people's health movements and daily behavior,” Heath wrote. “Even in some cases, this kind of administrative intervention is not effective, but if it is carried out, the benefits will be fully transformed into a large-scale national fitness boom.”

Use mobile phone information to promote popular fitness activities

The fourth group of studies found that the use of modern technology, especially mobile communication technology, can significantly promote people's fitness.

US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention researcher Dr. Michael Pratt wrote in the article: "In low-income countries and middle-income countries, with the lack of exercise and rising rates of mobile phone use rapid population growth, it is possible to provide information by phone, Improve the health of the global population. "

Researchers believe that more than 400 million text messaging users worldwide , especially in low-income countries, are more effective in providing fitness information through mobile phones.

Dr. Pratt and his team estimated that in the report, middle-income countries the use of Internet communications technology to improve the health standards of the effect is twice as high-income countries, because 71 percent of the world's population lives in these countries, many of whom use mobile phones .

He wrote, “This is a big challenge, but the obvious progress in countries like Colombia and Brazil shows that it is a achievable challenge”

Obesity should be considered an epidemic

The study concluded that the lack of exercise should be considered a global epidemic and should be treated like other infectious diseases.

“Although scientific research can provide sound evidence and play a role in promoting it, the consequences of lack of exercise have not received much attention.” The lead author of the study, Harold, a researcher at the University of Texas School of Public Health Cole wrote.

  "People's fitness participation is insufficient, insufficient attention and insufficient staffing ... National fitness has not really started."

Cole called on low- and middle-income countries and high-income countries to work together to solve this problem across fields. “Lack of exercise is a problem that spans many areas of study and requires research, collaboration, and exchange of information with partners,” he writes. Urban and community planners, transportation engineers, schools, and parks are particularly important to mention here. Entertainment officials and the media are especially important.

He said that nearly 75% of the countries in the World Health Organization have developed fitness promotion programs, but only 55% of the plans are implemented, and only 42% of the plans are adequate.

  “It must be recognized that the planning of infrastructure should be greatly improved and the formulation and implementation of policies strengthened, and supervision and training of leaders and staff should be strengthened.”
