很少有人会考虑到我们走路时是如何把一只脚放在另一只脚前面的,但如今科学家们正在研究改变走姿是否能够保护我们的身心健康。有望的一点是如何改变我们的走姿才能降低患膝关节炎的风险。最常见的膝关节炎类型就是骨关节炎,这种关节炎通常在中年后发病,会导致软骨逐渐受损。
Few of us give much thought to how we put one foot in front of the other, but scientists are investigating whether changing the way we walk can protect our physical and mental health. One promising focus is on how altering our gait can reduce our risk of knee arthritis. The most common type is osteoarthritis, which typically begins in middle age and gradually leads to the destruction of cartilage.
