Walking at least 3,967 steps a day reduces the risk of dying from any cause.
There was a 42 percent reduction in death in older adults who walked from 6,000 to 10,000 steps a day, while there was a 49 percent reduction in younger adults who walked 7,000 and 13,000 steps a day, the study reported.
Researchers believe the study helps showcase how walking even a small amount can help change unhealthy lifestyle habits that ultimately lead to cardiovascular disease. "Until now, it's not been clear what is the optimal number of steps, both in terms of the cut-off points over which we can start to see health benefits, and the upper limit, if any, and the role this plays in people's health," Dr. Ibadete Bytyçi from the University Clinical Centre of Kosovo, Pristina, Kosovo, senior author of the paper, said in a press release.
