Light physical activity from childhood is more effective than MVPA in reducing inflammation caused by being sedentary
Increased sedentary time from childhood through young adulthood worsened low-grade inflammation in a new follow-up study. However, the results also showed that light physical activity (LPA) may completely reverse the adverse process. Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) did not have a similar effect. The study was conducted in collaboration between the University of Bristol in the UK, the University of Exeter in the UK, and the University of Eastern Finland, and the results were published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism.
