Regular daily fitness may reduce the risk of severe Covid-19 infection, hospitalization and even death from the disease, according to new research.
About 20 minutes of exercise each day, along with severe symptoms, may protect against Covid-19, according to a new study published Monday in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. Moderate exercise and vigorous physical activity have been shown to be healthy defenses against disease.
However, researchers say the study has limitations and should be read with caution. The team quantified the required exercise time by analyzing global data from 16 different studies completed from November 2019 to his March 2022.
The total number of participants in the surveyed data included 1.8 million people with an average age of 53 years. Pooled data showed that an individual who exercised regularly had an 11% lower risk of contracting Covid-19 than he did. They were also 36% less likely to be hospitalized, 44% less likely to develop serious symptoms, and 43% less likely to die.

“Regular physical activity appears to be associated with a lower likelihood of adverse Covid-19 outcomes,” the study said. People who are physically active are more likely to have Sars-CoV-2 infection, Covid-19 hospitalizations, severe Covid-19 illness, and Covid-19-related death than physically inactive people, regardless of design. It became clear that the possibility is low.The instrument used.”
Pooled data investigated by Spain-based researchers came from nine studies conducted in the United Kingdom, Canada, Iran, Brazil, Spain, Palestine, South Africa, Sweden, and South Korea.

“The association between regular physical activity and COVID-19 outcomes is poorly understood, but may involve both metabolic and environmental factors,” the researchers added. “Increasing evidence from several studies suggests that increased physical activity may modulate the disease course and reduce the incidence of negative outcomes in confirmed cases of COVID-19. increase.”
People who exercise regularly are also less likely to have heart disease, diabetes, and obesity.
