A recent study revealed that vulnerability hand gripThis indicates the presence of health problems affecting people, and the study also indicated that the decrease or weakness of the muscles of the body sometimes becomes an indicator of the death rate, according to what was published by The Sun.
A team of researchers explained that the issue of weakness and strength of the hand grip is related to some diseases such as diabetes, heart, lung disease, Alzheimer’s and cancer, so doctors warn once morest using the hand in difficult tasks to prevent any health problems from occurring later.
The experts were able to communicate with a device to measure the strength of the hand grip, which is a device in the same way that the cup is held, taking into account also the clarification of the relationship between the strength of the hand grip, body length and aging, and if the device shows a weakness in the hand grip, then this becomes a sign of health problems in me. This injured individual.
The results of the study showed that hand grip strength depends on the age and physical fitness of the individuals, taking into account the decrease in hand grip strength as a result of natural aging.
In the same context, Dr. Sergey Cherbov, a researcher at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis, said, “If you compare your fist with a large group of people of the same age, gender, and weight as you, and the degree of hand grip is lower, this may indicate a problem.”
Dr Adam Taylor, from Lancaster University, said: ‘Having below-average grip strength compared to people of the same sex and age range was associated with a risk of heart failure, with low strength indicating harmful changes in heart structure and function. Similarly, research has shown that poor grip strength is a strong predictor of cardiac death.
He continued: With diseases such as diabetes, cancer and heart disease, the ability of muscles to work decreases for a number of reasons. In diabetes, for example, excess fat in the muscles weakens them.
The results also showed that people with obesity and type 2 diabetes also suffer from weakness in hand grip strength.
