Good fitness in your 30s may shape artery health decades later

People with good physical fitness in their 30s and 50s have more elastic arteries later in life. This is shown in a new study from Karolinska Institutet, published in the journal Scientific Reports, titled "Aerobic capacity ...

Blood pressure drug can reduce arterial stiffening

Obesity is closely intertwined with high blood pressure and diabetes, often putting patients at greater risk for either of these health conditions. It's also associated with arterial stiffening—when the walls of the artery ...

Ozone exposure linked to hypoxia and arterial stiffness

Ozone (O3) exposure may reduce the availability of oxygen in the body, resulting in arterial stiffening due to the body's natural response to create more red blood cells and hemoglobin, according to a study published in the ...
