 Walking Benefits Heart Health, NIH Expert Says

On National Walking Day (April 6), NHLBI researcher Dr. Jerome Fleg discusses walking's cardiovascular benefits. Research shows daily walking reduces heart disease, stroke, and diabetes risks. Studies found 7,000 steps daily lowers death risk by 50-70%, while 150 minutes weekly helps postmenopausal women reduce hypertension. Walking benefits diverse groups including African Americans and supports weight management—particularly in heavier women who could avoid up to 15 pounds of weight gain over 15 years.

Understanding Diabetes Risk Factors: What You Can and Cannot Change

Nearly 125 million U.S. adults have prediabetes, with many unaware of their condition. Type 2 diabetes risk factors include non-modifiable ones (family history, ethnicity, age, gestational diabetes history) and modifiable ones. To reduce risk: lose 5-10% body weight, exercise 150 minutes weekly, maintain blood pressure below 130/80 mm Hg, and quit smoking. These lifestyle changes can prevent or delay diabetes development and improve quality of life.

Walking for Heart Health

Walking is a simple, free way to improve cardiovascular health, says Mass General Brigham cardiologist Dr. Hicham Skali. Regular walking lowers cholesterol, blood pressure, and premature death risk while improving artery health and preventing weight gain. It also boosts energy, mood, sleep quality, and reduces stress while preventing diseases like diabetes and dementia. Start with short walks and gradually build to 150 minutes weekly. Even 4,000 steps daily provides benefits. For those with existing heart conditions, walking strengthens heart muscle and decreases cardiovascular event risk—"better than any pill out there."

5 surprising benefits of walking

Walking is described as "the closest thing to a wonder drug" by Dr. Thomas Frieden, former CDC director. Research shows walking offers surprising benefits: it counteracts obesity genes, reduces sweet cravings, lowers breast cancer risk by 14% for women walking 7+ hours weekly, eases joint pain and prevents arthritis, and boosts immune function—with regular walkers experiencing 43% fewer sick days and milder symptoms when ill.
