Description
Donya Nemati and three co-authors study race gaps in heart health gains from exercise. Their twenty twenty-four paper uses the LIFE trial, which sorted sixteen hundred older adults into two groups. One group did on-site exercise twice a week, plus home exercise. The other group got health classes. The team tracked eight heart health factors for two years.
Factors included exercise, sleep, smoking, weight, blood pressure, and blood tests. Gains in exercise, sleep, weight, and one blood fat were seen for White members in the exercise group. The pattern did not match for Black members. The authors argue that one plan may not close gaps, and programs may need tailoring.
