Just about 11 minutes of daily moderate physical activity like a brisk walk can lower the risk of early death from diseases such as heart disease, stroke and a number of cancers, according to a new study.
Previous studies have already documented that moderate-intensity physical activity can reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer, and the NHS recommends that adults do at least 150 minutes of such exercise, or about 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity activity every week.
