In the research conducted by scientists from the Charles Perkins Center at the University of Sydney, the health data of 29 thousand 836 people over the age of 40 and obese from the UK Biobank accelerometer study were followed for nearly 8 years.
During this period, 1,425 deaths, 3,980 cases of cardiovascular disease and 2,162 cases of microvascular dysfunction were recorded among participants.
Researchers classified approximately 30 thousand people in this data set, 2,995 of whom were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, as those who engaged in moderate to vigorous exercise in the morning, afternoon or evening, according to the data they obtained from the wearable device they used.
Scientists have determined that people who do most of the breathtaking moderate to intense physical activities between 6 pm and midnight by increasing their heart rate have a lower risk of premature death or death from cardiovascular diseases, and also the frequency of doing such exercises lasting 3 minutes or longer. found that it is more important than the total amount of physical activity per day.
The lead author of the study, Dr. Matthew Ahmadi stated that they do not discriminate between the types of physical activities they follow, and that the study also shows that evening exercise is the most protective exercise against type 2 diabetes.
The article of the study was published in the journal Diabetes Care.
