Turns Out 10K Isn't the Correct Number of Healthy Steps a Day, It's...
Published 4 months, 4 weeks ago
Description
Turns out it's actually not 10K steps a day for health and wellness! Scientists say the whole “10,000 steps a day” thing was created to sell pedometers and not based on actual data. So what does the data say?
7,000 steps!
7,000-steps a day was associated lower risk of dementia, cardiovascular disease, depression, type-2 diabetes and falling. Yes, 10,000 steps is still great but if you only get 7K in, be proud.
