Experts Reveal the Essential Daily Steps for Health and Disease Prevention
TL;DR Summary
A walking expert recommends a minimum of 2,500 steps daily to reduce health risks, with benefits increasing up to around 8,000-10,000 steps, especially for those under 60. Walking less than 2,500 steps raises the risk of cardiovascular and other health issues, while increasing steps can improve mental health and longevity. Experts suggest incorporating micro walks and gradually increasing daily steps for optimal health benefits.
