  • Greener neighborhoods linked to better heart health
    Paper of the Month - February 2019
    Living in green neighborhoods may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by decreasing the body's stress and boosting its ability to repair blood vessels, according to a new study by NIEHS grantees. Previous studies linking lower risk of cardiovascular disease with green spaces mainly relied on subjective questionnaires. This study is the first to provide direct evidence of physiological changes in people associated with living in green spaces.
