Walking is one of the easiest ways to exercise. It’s simple, it’s fun, and you can change your routine to keep it interesting. But walking in particular comes with a lot of benefits.
It counteracts the effects of weight promoting genes. A study shown that participants who walked briskly for about an hour a day, the effects of those genes were cut in half.
It curbs a sweet tooth. Walking can curb cravings for something sweet and even reduce the amount you eat in stressful situations.
It eases joint pain. Studies have found that walking reduces arthritis-related pain, and that walking five to six miles a week can even prevent arthritis from forming in the first place.
Boosts immune system. Walking can help protect you during cold and flu season and if you do get sick, it’s for a shorter duration and symptoms were milder.
