\"\"Los adolescentes musculosos tienen una mayor esperanza de vida en comparaci\u00f3n con otros menos fuertes, sean delgados u obesos, de acuerdo con los resultados de un estudio difundido hoy. La investigaci\u00f3n sueca publicada en la revista British Medical Journal involucr\u00f3 a j\u00f3venes que ten\u00edan al comienzo del estudio entre 16 y 19 a\u00f1os. Los investigadores midieron la masa muscular de brazos y piernas.<\/p>\n

Durante los 24 a\u00f1os que dur\u00f3 el estudio fallecieron 26 mil 45 voluntarios por accidentes, suicidios, c\u00e1ncer, accidentes cerebro vasculares y enfermedades del coraz\u00f3n. El 35 por ciento de las muertes ocurridas fueron por otras causas que sirvieron a los investigadores para realizar sus c\u00e1lculos. Como resultado, encontraron que las personas con una mayor masa muscular tuvieron de 20 a 35 por ciento de menos riesgo de muerte temprana. Adem\u00e1s, pertenecen a un grupo que tiene menor tendencia al suicidio o conductas autodestructivas.<\/p>\n

Tambi\u00e9n los individuos fuertes presentaron entre 20 y 30 por ciento de un riesgo m\u00e1s bajo de muerte por suicidio y 65 por ciento menos de probabilidades de padecer enfermedades psiqui\u00e1tricas como depresi\u00f3n o esquizofrenia.<\/p>\n

Por el contrario, los muchachos con poca masa muscular presentaron probabilidades m\u00e1s altas de morir antes de los 55 a\u00f1os. Seg\u00fan los investigadores, los efectos de la debilidad muscular son parecidos a factores conocidos de riesgo de muerte como la obesidad y la hipertensi\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

Stronger teenagers live longer, says new study<\/strong>
\nAccording to the research into a million Swedish military conscripts, carried out over 24 years, 16 to 19-year-olds who had above average strength at the start of the study had a 20-35% lower risk of early death from cardiovascular diseases and other causes.<\/p>\n

They also had a 20-30% lower risk of early death from suicide and were up to 65% less likely to have a psychiatric illness.
\nTeenagers with the lowest level of muscular strength had the highest risk of dying before they reached their mid-50s.Poor muscle fitness had a similar effect to other risk factors for early death, such as obesity and high blood pressure.<\/p>\n

Muscle strength is believed to be a key sign of overall fitness levels, which would explain the link. But experts stressed the findings do not mean muscle building in itself makes you live longer. The study also did not explain whether physical weakness was caused by or resulted from ill health.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
