Research suggests that taking as few as 2,337 steps per day can reduce the risk of dying from heart disease, while 3,867 steps can lower the risk of all-cause mortality. Each additional 1,000 steps can decrease the risk of all-cause mortality by 15% and an extra 500 steps can reduce the risk of dying from heart disease by 7%. Walking is a practical and effective way to improve health, with benefits observed at all ages but particularly in those under 60. Experts recommend starting with 15-minute walks, gradually increasing duration and frequency.
