In many ways, researchers are just catching up to what tens of millions of people in China and Chinatowns around the rest of the world already know about Tai Chi. Scientists at the Oregon Research Institute in Eugene reported that Tai Chi offers the greatest benefit to older men and women who are healthy but relatively inactive. Previous studies have shown that Tai Chi practiced regularly helps reduce falls among healthy seniors.

For older individuals, Tai Chi will not be the endall, says William Haskell, an expert in chronicdisease prevention at Stanford University. But Tai Chi plus walking would be a very good mixture. Younger people probably need more of an aerobic challenge, but they can benefit from Tai Chi39。s capacity to reduce stress.The best thing about Tai Chi is that people enjoy it, so they are more likely to stick with it long enough to get some benefit.
