Walking Instead of Sitting Prolongs Life, Even in Small Doses

Trading 2 minutes/hour of sedentary activity with light-intensity activity was linked to 33% lower mortality in the general population and 41% lower mortality in those with chronic kidney disease (CKD), according to an observational analysis published online April 30 in the Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology.


“We hoped to understand whether lower duration of sedentary activities with higher duration of low- or light-intensity activities is associated with survival benefit,” lead author Srinivasan Beddhu, MD, from the University of Utah School of Medicine in Salt Lake City, said in a news release.
