6週間後、収縮期血圧を測ってみると、IMSTを行なっていたグループは血圧が平均で9も下がたことが分かりました。これは毎日30分のウォーキングを行うのと同等の効果です。また、IMSTのプログラムを終え6週間なにも行わなかった場合でも、ほとんどの人がIMSTの効果を持続させており、ウォーキングでは得られなかった長期的な効果があることがわかりました。
血圧だけでなく、刺激による動脈の広がりが45%回復したことも確認されました。動脈の詰まりが原因で心臓疾患を患う方や心筋梗塞などの病気になるので、この発見は予防療法にとってとても大きなの前進だと言えると思います。たくさん心疾患で亡くなる高齢の方がいるので、ぜひIMSTを取り入れてみてください。
The research published on June 29th has found that doing 5minutes of inspiratory muscle strength training (IMST) a day for 6 days a week lowers the blood pressure and prevents heart disease. 36 healthy Americans between 50~79 years old with higher systolic blood pressure than usual were collected, and 18 people did IMST for 6 weeks while the other half was in the placebo group which did easier training instead.
After 6 weeks, group who did IMST decreased systolic blood pressure by 9 points in average, and this is equivalent to people who walks for 30min everyday. Also, the effect of IMST lasted after 6 weeks from the last IMST day and the effect that walking has does not last this long.
In addition to the blood pressure, ability for arteries to expand upon stimulation improved by 45% for those who did IMST. Blocked arteries lead to heart disease like myocardial infarction, so this research put the prevention method forward. There are many elderly who passes away from heart disease, so please try IMST if you’re interested!!
