I find it interesting how companies are promoting the healthy lifestyle of kayaking to promote the purchase of a different type of product.
Aurora St. Luke’s Medical Center used kayaking in one of their commercials promoting the effectiveness of their cardiac care. I know nothing about this hospital. Nevertheless, I have met several people that have started kayaking after a cardiac problem. One of my close guest’s health has improved greatly after she started kayaking. There is no research to my knowledge being done to prove that kayaking promotes a healthy lifestyle and can help cardiac problems. Moreover, I think if your doctor says go paddling then I think you should. And it would be a cool way to convince your spouse to get a cool toy!
