Recent research found that people who regularly cl

Recent research found that people who regularly climbed stairs had about a 39% lower chance of death from heart disease versus those who didn’t climb stairs. Climbers also had a lower risk of heart attacks and strokes. Regular stair climbing can improve body composition, blood pressure and insulin sensitivity.

So what do researchers recommend? Six to ten flights on stairs a day would be a good target. Start off slowly and gradually increase the number of stairs.

These higher rates are due to the social condition

These higher rates are due to the social conditions that are more likely to affect minority groups.

Some factors that affect sexual health include:
✔Poverty
✔Health care access
✔Low education levels
✔Insurance status

Addressing the racial and ethnic disparities in the rising rates of STDs is crucial to understanding how we can get a handle on this.

April is National Minority Health Month. Throughout this month, we’ll be bringing awareness about the health conditions and disparities racial and ethnic minority communities face.
