But heels are not good for your feet young lady.whatever i wear them anyway too. Back to top FranklyTodd Yahoo User Posted: Wed Feb 20, 2008 3:42 pm    Post subject: Probably yes - it takes more effort from your legs' small stabilizer muscles to keep your balance.Having said that, I have to assume the difference is very, very small!!

Back to top Emily Yahoo User Posted: Wed Feb 20, 2008 3:49 pm    Post subject: No. But walking in heels are very bad for your back leg muscles.They may strain the knees and increase the risk of arthritis Extreme heel height can harm your knees. In a study published in The Lancet, Harvard researchers linked wearing high heels with a height of around 2.7in to a 24 per cent increase in 'knee strain' - a factor that is closely linked to a raised risk of arthritis. The results mean that very high heels are best limited to special occasions. They reduce mental alertness Heels of more than 2in can considerably increase muscular tension all through the body, constricting blood vessels and limiting blood supply to muscles and the brain. 'So, if you're standing in high heels for extended periods, this reduces the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the brain, contributing to a feeling of fatigue Back to top
