1 km distance: Walking or jogging is better for health?

Walking and running both have significant health benefits. They are two popular forms of endurance exercise, often compared for their effectiveness in weight loss, cardiovascular health, mental health, and fitness.

Walking and jogging have different impacts on the body over the same distance, such as 1 km. Walking is a gentle activity that puts little pressure on the joints, suitable for most people, especially beginners, the elderly or people recovering from injuries.

Meanwhile, jogging has a higher intensity of exercise, burning more calories in a short time. This form of exercise is suitable for those who want to lose weight quickly or improve their fitness. However, high-intensity exercise also comes with more risks than walking.

In fact, both walking and jogging help burn calories, which is a key factor in weight loss. However, jogging burns more calories because the intensity of the exercise is higher. A study by Harvard Medical School (USA) showed that in the same 30-minute period, a 70-kg person will burn about 150 calories when walking at a speed of 6.4 km/h. Meanwhile, if they run at a speed of 9.6 km/h, the amount of calories burned is 372 calories.

But if we consider the distance, the amount of calories burned is not that different. Walking 1 km burns about 50-70 calories, while running 1 km burns about 80-100 calories depending on weight and speed. This shows that running burns about 30-50% more calories per km than walking.

Not blood, 2 strange signs when going to the toilet could be cancer

Experts from the UK's Liver Cancer Research Agency say two changes to bowel habits could be warning signs of a deadly cancer that is extremely difficult to detect.

Bile duct cancer, or cholangiocarcinoma, is a type of cancer that occurs in the ducts that connect the liver, gallbladder, and intestines. This is a rare form of cancer, accounting for about 3% of digestive tract cancers. Because the bile ducts are located deep inside the body, bile duct cancer is often not detected until the tumor has grown large enough to cause symptoms.

Liver Cancer UK says some key signs of bile duct cancer can only be detected when going to the toilet.

And two changes to watch for: Unusually dark or pale urine and pale, "pasty-like" stools.

Both symptoms can be signs of jaundice, a condition that occurs when the liver is under severe stress. In bile duct cancer, this can be a sign that the disease has blocked the ducts leading to the liver, causing bile to spill into the blood and other tissues. Other signs of jaundice include yellowing of the skin and eyes, and itchy skin. The next content of this article will be on the health page on May 9 .

Be careful with the trend on social networks: Itching after drinking lemon water, why?

After about 10-20 days of drinking lemon juice to detoxify and treat diseases, many people experience symptoms such as itching, red rash all over the body, coughing up a lot of phlegm, however, they do not know whether to stop or continue drinking.

On a group sharing experiences about drinking lemon juice to treat diseases, many members shared that they had symptoms such as itching, red rash all over the body, coughing up phlegm, and feeling tired like they had a cold. This made them wonder whether they should continue drinking lemon or stop. However, many people believe that this is a sign that the body is detoxifying, so they continue to drink it.

Doctor Le Thao Nguyen, Nam Sai Gon International General Hospital, said that the above symptoms could be related to the abuse of lemon, especially when drinking too much on an empty stomach.

"When the body receives a large amount of citric acid from lemon continuously for many days, especially when there is no proper nutritional foundation, the digestive and immune systems can react. Rash, itchy skin, cough, body aches,... are inflammatory or irritating reactions that show the body is on alert," said Dr. Nguyen.

In addition, coughing with phlegm and body aches can also come from irritation of the stomach and esophagus lining. Drinking lemon juice on an empty stomach continuously can easily cause acid reflux, causing mild inflammation of the throat, dry cough or phlegm cough. Therefore, when there are prolonged signs such as itchy skin, hives, unexplained cough, especially if you have recently changed your eating habits, you need to stop immediately and go to a medical facility for examination. Do not continue on your own with the belief that "drinking for a long time will get you used to it". Start your day with health news to see more of this article!
