Abstract in brief

  • The study found a nonlinear relationship between daily step count and the risk of death or cardiovascular disease, meaning the benefits increase with more steps but not at a constant rate.
  • Higher step counts, especially in accelerometer-based studies, are associated with significantly lower risks of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular events, with the greatest benefits observed when stepping from the lowest to higher quartiles of activity.
  • Overall, the meta-analysis supports that increasing daily steps can reduce the risk of early death and cardiovascular issues in middle-aged and older adults, but the relationship is complex and not simply linear.]

Ahora la buena noticia, es que el simple hecho de aumentar tus pasos, LA CANTIDAD QUE SEA durante el día, disminuirá estos riesgos

Increase your lifespan and lower the risk of developing diseases like diabetes and CVD? Simply walk more! People who walk 9k steps per day and more have a ~40% lower risk of developing these diseases than those who only walk 4k steps (meta-analysis) https://t.co/7XK2dSPUgb
