Greater Physical Activity Lowers Kidney Stone Risk


Physical activity may lower the risk of kidney stones in women, researchers reported at the American Urological Association 
According to the survey ,84,225 post menopausal women aged 50-79 enrolled

Incidence kidney stones were reported by 2,392 women (2.8%). Women in the lowest physical activity category had a 14% decreased risk of kidney stones compared with sedentary women in adjusted analyses.

The study also showed that greater dietary energy intake was associated with up to a 44% increased risk of incident kidney stones. Lower dietary energy intake, however, did not protect against stone formation. 

Greater body mass index category increased the risk of incident stones.
