Meta-analysis shows fewer than 10K steps daily can reduce older adults’ mortality risk

Older adults can reduce their risk for all-cause mortality if they walk about 6,000 to 8,000 steps per day, according to findings published in The Lancet Public Health.
Also, adults aged younger than 60 years can reduce their mortality risk by walking about 8,000 to 10,000 steps per day.
“Promoting steps is an excellent way to promote moving more and sitting less throughout the day,” Amanda E. Paluch, PhD, an assistant professor in the department of kinesiology at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, told Healio. “Our study suggests a range of steps that can be beneficial
