Two studies published in the Journal of Internal Medicine of the American Medical Association and Neurology of the American Medical Association recently monitored 78500 adults using wearable trackers, and confirmed that 10000 steps a day is the ideal step to achieve the best health effect. In addition, the study also found that the important thing is not only how much to walk, but also how fast to walk. These two studies are also the largest to date on the impact of walking steps on health. The study found that walking 10000 steps a day can reduce the risk of dementia, heart disease, cancer and death. However, the benefits of a faster pace outweigh the number of steps achieved. Dr Matthew Ahmadi, co-author of the research paper and researcher of Charles Perkins Center of Sydney University and School of Medicine and Health, said: "The conclusion of this study is that in order to protect health, people can not only take 10000 steps a day as an ideal goal, but also walk faster." Researchers say that every 2000 to 10000 steps, the risk of premature death will be reduced by 8% to 11%. There is a similar association between cardiovascular disease and incidence rate of cancer. The more steps you walk every day, the lower the risk of all-cause dementia. Walking 3800 steps a day reduces the risk by 25%. 9800 steps is the best step to reduce the risk of dementia by 50%. The study also showed that the intensity of step frequency or faster pace showed a beneficial association with all outcomes (dementia, heart disease, cancer and death), exceeding the benefits of the total number of steps per day. These findings may provide a reference for pace based sports guidelines and help to develop effective public health plans aimed at preventing chronic diseases. (Outlook New Times)
