事件记录
记录: Covering all aspects of women's health, this is the Seven Domains of Women's Health with Dr. Kirtly Jones在Scope上报道.
Dr. 琼斯: 在Scope演播室，大发娱乐请到了. Amy Powell, who is a sports medicine specialist at the University of Utah Orthopedic Center. 现在博士. 鲍威尔最初是一名内科医生, meaning she trained to take care of sick people but her focus has really changed. Not only does she take care of not so sick, 就像那些想保持健康的人, 但她也培训医科学生.
所以博士. 鲍威尔，你负责 . . . you're the orthopedic specialist for the faculty here. If you had one thing to say about exercise and sports, but exercise that everybody should think about, 你的激情是什么？?
Dr. 鲍威尔: I think really exercise is medicine and if we could put it in a pill form and take a pill every day, it would be so much easier to sell exercise as a health tool than it is to try to get people off the couch and exercise at moderate levels for 30 to 60 minutes a day.
Dr. 琼斯: Do you see that the now having more portable electronic devices that measure your steps, I see many faculty here at the U with their little wristbands on and they look at me with their eyes shining and say, “我快到10分了,今天走000步." How do you see the couch generation being motivated to move more for their health and wellness?
Dr. 鲍威尔: I think those gadgets are really wonderful and I think that especially looking at school and medicine, we're all internally driven and fairly competitive people and so if we have a gadget that says this is our goal, 大发娱乐将努力实现这一目标. And I think motivating people who aren't used to being active in any way, 对某些人来说，这是一个很好的工具. It doesn't obviously work for everyone but it is a great tool.
Dr. 琼斯: The other thing I notice is when I go and if I go to walk around the track or go to a playground, I watch little kids and they're usually . . . I watch the three to six year-olds and they don't just exercise. 他们只是不停地移动所有东西. 他们转动他们的眼睛，手臂. 它们跳起来. They do this little, silly jumping thing. 它们跳上跳下. 他们想搬家，然后情况就变了. 作为父母，大发娱乐应该怎么做?
Dr. 鲍威尔: I think free play we absolutely need to encourage our kids to do for as long as possible. 我不知道为什么会变. It seems to me that earlier and earlier we're getting our kids into organized sports, which is a good thing and a bad thing in so many ways. 只是为了鼓励自由游戏, 在安全的街道上跑来跑去, 在操场上跑步, 在墙上弹跳, those things that kids love to do are naturally going to be healthy for a lot of reasons. 对骨密度有好处. 这对他们保持健康很有好处. It's great for having fun and kids need to learn all those things and free play's really part of that.
Dr. 琼斯: Well baby, we were born to run, weren't we?
Dr. 鲍威尔: 是的.
Dr. 琼斯: Let's talk a little bit about the wellness benefits in terms of . . . think about your gut or think about your brain or we all know exercise is good for your heart but think about the other parts of your body. 运动还有什么好处呢?
Dr. 鲍威尔: 这么多事情. I think that it's great for mental health. There have been some studies suggesting that exercise is as or more effective then anti-depressants for treating major depression. There are really great studies showing that people can get off of high blood pressure medications and diabetes medications if they exercise regularly and sometimes lose weight. 但这不是为了减肥. It really is for heart health, for mental health, for bone health, for gut health. 再一次。, if we could put it in a bottle and have everybody take it as a pill, we would all be taking one of these pills a day. But it's just harder to motivate people to actually get up and move.
Dr. 琼斯: 我听说久坐是新的吸烟方式.
Dr. 鲍威尔: 嗯哼.
Dr. 琼斯: So let's talk about that for just a sec. I mean I'm perfectly willing to go out and put my 40 minutes in the treadmill and the rowing machine but then I sit around for the rest of the day. 我读到过这实际上是 . . . 你好像从来没锻炼过. If you're going to move, think about moving intermittently throughout the day. 那又怎么样？?
Dr. 鲍威尔: It's true and that to me is scary because there was a study that came out last year that showed that an hour a day of exercise could not overcome a sedentary eight hours of work. So we have to move all the time and there are lots of neat interventions we can use like treadmill desks are being implemented at the School of Medicine Library. Some folks in my building are using treadmill desks so they can walk at a slow pace throughout the day.
We just have to move and it is hard for some people with truly sedentary jobs to do that but I'm teaching right now, 所以在课间, between each hour of teaching I'll run up and down three flights of stairs just to kind of keep moving throughout the day because I can't help seating.
Dr. 琼斯: And for our listening audience, I want you to know that Dr. Powell is slim and muscular and the woman I want to be when I grow up. 好吧，那大发娱乐就去搬家吧.
Dr. 鲍威尔: 是的.
Dr. 琼斯: 要么利用它，要么失去它.
