Description:

The Sympathetic Nervous System and Vascular Health | Drs. Anna Stanhewicz Jody GreaneyAnna Stanhewicz, Ph.D., and Jody Greaney, Ph.D., FACSM, are scientists at Pennsylvania State University. They have been studying the process through which the sympathetic nervous system communicates with the vascular system during total body heating and cooling, particularly in aging adults.As humans age, this communication process becomes less efficient and can cause an increase in cardiovascular risk. Drs. Stanhewicz and Greaney are studying this process in attempt to determine intervention strategies that may mitigate the cardiovascular risk. An International Consensus Statement on Physical Activity and Mental Heath Just ReleasedExercise and Sports Science Australia, American College of Sports Medicine, British Association of Sport and Exercise Science, and Sport and Exercise Science New Zealand collaborated to develop a brief statement titled The Role of Sport, Exercise, and Physical Activity in Closing the Life Expectancy Gap for People with Mental Illness. The statementdiscusses the need for holistic treatment for those with mental illness including physical health care, which is often lacking when mental illness is the focus of treatment. We invite you toread the paper, which published in the Translational Journal of the America College of Sports Medicine, and share with your colleagues.
