When it comes to the cause of heart disease, many people will think of "3 high" disease (high blood pressure, high blood fat and high uric acid), but in fact, there is a hidden "highest level" - hidden -heart rate.Some studies have shown that people with lower heartbeat will live longer and this index is based on the number of heart rate calculation per minute.
Dr. Hoang Xuan, a Taiwanese recovery expert (China) shared that the rate of heart rate is closely related to longevity.The average heart rate of adults is about 60 to 100 times per minute when standing still.It was observed in the animal kingdom that the species with a slow heartbeat had a relatively longer life expectancy.
He quoted a study in Paris (France) and showed that the average life expectancy of people with heart rate over 90 times/minute was 70.27 years;While for people with heart rate less than 60 times/minute, the average life expectancy increased to 9 years old is about 79.3 years old.
The team also found that when the heart rate increased by 10 beats per minute, the risk of death increased by an average of 25%.Another study by Framingham (USA) also showed that women often live longer than men and after 10 heart rate increases, the risk of death in men increases from 9% to 19%;For women, an increase of 4% to 15%.
