Grip strength and longevity

from The Healthy Commute · host Lindenwoods Chiropractic - Dr. Dan Timmerman & Dr. Pascal Breton

A firm handshake is often associated with higher confidence. Research has shown that a powerful grip also correlates to longevity! Researchers say grip strength can predict your overall strength and health, as well as your risk of cardiovascular disease. As you age, the stronger your grip, the more likely you are to survive diseases like cancer. Drs. Dan and Pascal discuss this interesting topic and why they started measuring grip strength with our new patients.  If you are interested in finding out how your grip strength measures up, we can easily test it on one of your future visits!
