The role of exercise (particularly distance running) in the prevention of coronary heart disease is discussed. Evidence is presented that the ability to perform an activity requiring the most extreme degree of physical stamina is no guarantee of a healthy heart or protection from a fatal myocardial infarct. A plea is made for correction or elimination of all coronary risk factors rather than focusing on one or a few which some regard as more important than the others.
讨论了运动(特别是长跑)在预防冠心病中的作用。有证据表明,具备进行需要极高体能的活动的能力并不能保证心脏健康或预防致命的心肌梗死。文章呼吁纠正或消除所有冠心病风险因素,而不是只关注某些人认为比其他因素更重要的一两个因素。
