Exercise Reduce Risk of Gallstone

YOU must already know the sport positive impact. Besides being able to make the body more fit, exercising regularly can reduce the risk of gallstones. 

Similarly, research conducted in the United States. Studies using mice medium is presumably also affect humans. Dr. Kenneth R. Wilund and colleagues found that the overall gallstone weight was 2.5 times greater than in mice. 

Researchers estimate that exercise can provide the same benefits in humans. "Form the basis of gallstone formation is quite similar between humans and mice," Wilund told Reuters Health.

According to him, Most of the proteins needed in liver cholesterol metabolism and bile acids are very similar between humans and that rodents. "Therefore, we estimate that there are changes that we believe has contributed to the reduction in gallstone formation in mice that have been trained to exercise may also occur in people who also do sports," commented Wilund, of the University of Illinois, Urbana. 

"In most situations, gallstone formation in humans occurs over a period of time maybe years," said Wilund. "So the result will be difficult to conduct similar research in humans. 

"However, the process of gallstone formation similar to those seen in mice and humans, so it can be concluded that exercise may also limit the formation of gallstones in humans, said Wilund and colleagues. 

"It's clear evidence that regular exercise can reduce the appearance of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and some cancers," continued Wilund. "This study shows preliminary evidence that we can incorporate some of the list of diseases that we can reduce the risks as diseases of the gall bladder." he said.
