Research claims women have stonger hearts than men

WOMEN live longer than men because their hearts remain strong as they grow old, new research has suggested.

Scientists discovered that a healthy man’s heart will lose 20 to 25 per cent of its pumping power between the ages of 20 and 70. But while a healthy 70-year-old woman is not as strong as she was 50 years previously, her heart is likely to have the same level of power. [Scotsman.com News - Health]
