Walking benefits include: • Supports cardiovascular health • Supports metabolic health • Supports brain health and cognitive function • Promotes better mental health • Improves sleep quality • Supports a healthy body composition • Strengthens muscles and joints • Helps reduce stress • Supports immune function • Supports eye health Some people focus so much on their step count that they overlook the quality of those steps. Varying your walking pace and terrain can help you get more out of your walking exercise. Walking after meals can be more beneficial than walking before. A 10-minute walk after eating can help your body clear excess glucose from the blood. Walking outside can boost the benefits even further by adding sun exposure. If possible, walk with a friend or family member to add the benefits of social connection.
