Abstract
Rabbits (36) were fed 0.25 gm of cholesterol per day for 90 days. Eighteen were exercised 5 minutes twice daily while 18 remained sedentary. The exercised rabbits developed significantly less cholesterol atherosclerosis as determined by visual inspection and chemical analysis of the aortas.Keywords
