Study on reduction of pressure: the more years of school are good for health

Perhaps the school will no longer be useful to find work, but certainly something to serve and if it is useful to the health and well being. A recent study in fact showed that those who study for more years - perhaps until graduation - and may protect against the risk of hypertension. I am convinced researchers at Brown University in the U.S., who examined the medical records of 4000 patients in the Framingham Offspring Study, an investigation lasting more than 30 years.

who has a high school education had the lowest pressure. A paradox? No, the simple facts. Looking over time the blood pressure in the control group, the scientists found that women who shoulder a full course of study up to university education, then 17 years of school altogether, and the pressure showed on average less than 3 , 26 points compared to women who did not graduate.

Only 2 points less for women who had completed college without taking any further until graduation, to arrive, finally, to the men who went to university and had graduated and showed a lower pressure of 2.26 points. Sweating on the books is good for health and welfare of the whole organism, and to improve the chances of conducting a higher standard of living.

This groundbreaking research was published in BMC Public Health, and a small revolution has shaken the academic: if the study had absolutely right, the professors and scholars would be eternal healthier people - at least from the perspective of hypertension - you are. When will it seems, the researchers also noted a correlation between the values of lower pressure and a decrease in alcohol consumption, smoking, and a lower incidence of overweight.

Studying is really good for your health, then, with significant changes as we go forward in the level of education: all levels in more than academic degree awarded in fact, reduces the incidence of hypertension. "Even bearing in mind the socio-economic variables - says Eric Loucks from Brown University - the years of study are inversely correlated with hypertension, the positive effect of culture is even stronger for women than for men." Women gain, therefore, greater benefits from the study for their health.

But if it is true that dyslexia affects 5% of Italian students, here we perhaps this study may have different developments. If we also consider the various university reforms, a limited number of courses and the difficulties that each student has to face not only get to graduate will be a dream, but at this point become a chimera presisone too low, and therefore a health test bomb.
