In the study, published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, Manisty’s team looked at 138 first-time marathon runners from the 2016 and 2017 London Marathon. Hardening of the arteries is a normal part of aging. It increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as stroke and heart attack and related conditions which are also linked to dementia and kidney disease.
It’s not about quantity of life but quality. Let me prove it. Would you rather have 85 years of happiness or 125 years of misery
