Did you know that the average person like me and you spends nearly nine hours a day sitting?\u00a0While scientific research has shown that it is not good for you.\u00a0For example, it increases the risk of high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease, but also of type 2 diabetes. All the more reason to take the leg wagon more often: 9 reasons to walk more today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Good for muscles and bones<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First of all, walking is good for your muscles and bones.\u00a0It makes them stronger and therefore reduces the chance of developing osteoporosis\u00a0(bone loss). \u00a0
Frequent loading of bones makes them stronger and you even build new bone mass.\u00a0In addition, it is also good for the cartilage, the elastic tissue between the bones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Good for the heart and blood vessels<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Walking for at least thirty minutes every day lowers blood pressure and blood cholesterol. It also improves the condition of the heart and blood vessels. The risk of heart problems already falls by 50 percent if people are active for one hour a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Good for diabetes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Walking or walking every day gives a lower risk of type 2 diabetes. It not only lowers the risk of developing diabetes.\u00a0Even if you have diabetes, it is good to walk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Good for the brain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For people who remain physically (and mentally) active throughout their lives, the risk of Alzheimer’s is reduced by 20 to 50 percent. Walking is also healthy for those who already suffer from dementia. Walkers are more cheerful and their memory functions better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Good for the lungs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Those who walk a lot increase the capacity of the lungs to absorb oxygen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Good for depression<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Walking works against STRESS\u00a0and depressive feelings.\u00a0Anxiety disorders decrease by almost half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Good for the night’s rest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Walking and daylight is good for the biological clock, which makes falling asleep and sleeping better. The quality of your sleep will also improve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Good for being overweight<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Running well for an hour (5 kilometers per hour) costs around 240 kilo calories.\u00a0If you walk for half an hour every day, you can lose a lot of weight: one kilo in two months and six kilos in a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. Good for digestion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Moving and therefore also walking stimulates digestion and prevents clogging of the intestines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By taking a one-off walk, these health effects do not, of course, occur immediately.\u00a0You will only notice the benefits if you regularly walk and walk.\u00a0Start today, because what you immediately notice is the positive effect on your mood!\u00a0So why not start now after you have read this blog.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
