Restrictive lung function impairment is associated with incident type 2 diabetes and fatal coronary heart disease (CHD), partially because of traditional and metabolic risk factors and inflammation, according to the results of a prospective study reported online June 2 in Diabetes Care.Kudos, fatsos.
"The association between impaired lung function and cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity and mortality is well established, although the mechanisms remain unclear," write S. Goya Wannamethee, PhD, from University College Medical School in London, United Kingdom, and colleagues. "Reduced lung function is also one of the many clinical features associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Diabetes has been shown to be associated with impaired pulmonary function in a restrictive pattern and prospective studies have suggested that reduced lung function may be associated with the development of T2DM."
Fitness Watch is your site for making sense of fitness advice.
"Truth" has a shelf life.
The shelf life of "truth" is very short in the domains of fitness, health and well-being.
The reason is that so much of what we are told is "true" is really baseless.
