A study conducted by the American Journal of Cardiology has found swimming aids in reduciing blood pressure and improved artery health for the elderly, reported Wall Stree Journal.

Since swimming does not put as much strain on the body as other exercises, the benefits are not limited to just cardiovascular. The study sample included Austin residents ranging from age 50 to 80 years.

Results showed lower systolic blood pressure in the group that participated in the experiment.
