A recent international study was made to evaluate whether exercise can limit the possibilities of having a severe stroke.
They found out that "people who exercised the most prior to their stroke were 2 1/2 times more likely to have a milder stroke when compared to those who exercised the least. And participants who put in the most active hours were also twice as likely to experience a better long-term outcome."
For those who have already reached the age of 50's - 60's it is still very important to spend time for exercise. Reaching that certain age of retirement doesnt mean less physical activity, in fact this should be a time for us to be more careful and cautious with our health. Light exercises or even just engaging to physical activities such as ballroom dancing, gardening etc can help our bodies stay fit.
