A member asked:
Why men who exercised(jogging) all their lives, with normal cholestrol, have more calcium in their coronary arteries than men who did not? different studies show this.why exercise if person is to get more calcium in coronary arteries as a result?

Questionable: Exercise is good for you and your health. Your perception of exercising increasing calcium in coronary arteries may not be correct. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
