- The people who exercise regularly have a much lower risk of heart attacks immediately after a sexual or physical activity, said study author Dr. Issa Dahabreh, Tufts Medical Center in Boston.
"very bad that someone would think that our research will mean that people should not do physical exercise," said Dahabreh. "Either way, this is the case otherwise."
However, the researchers found no relationship between sex and sudden cardiac arrest, ie, a sudden death from a heart problem.
The risk to any individual is extremely low. "If you follow 10 000 people for a year and if all decide to increase their physical activity in one hour a week, one would expect two or three more heart attacks," said Dahabreh. That risk is offset in most cases for the benefit of exercise. In general, the moves people, the less likely it is that exercise or sex cause a heart attack. Most of the patients who participated in the study were 50 years of age or were at the top of the 60's.
Exercise training could be considered for sex, according to Mercedes Carnethon, heart disease researcher at the Feinberg School of Medicine at Northwestern University who was not involved in the investigation. AP
