Weight loss expert Michael Mosley details countless health benefits of 'overlooked' exercise

Doctor Michael Mosley has been talking about an 'overlooked' form of exercise that can have countless benefits for people who want to become healthier and lose weight. The health expert and TV presenter is a huge advocate of sustainable weight loss which he's written about in his books, including the Fast 800 Diet, and he's built up a loyal following on social media thanks to his simple tips.

One of his latest Instagram posts was surrounding the many benefits of daily walking can have, not just on your physique but on your metabolism and mental health as well, reports Daily Record. The doctor says that walking is often 'overlooked' as a way to lose weight compared to other different types of exercise, but it can have plenty of impressive effects on your body and mind.

And these are all backed up by scientific evidence, as detailed by Michael in one of his articles. Before you set off, he recommends making sure you're wearing sensible shoes with good ankle support, as well as wearing an outfit with removable layers for maximum comfort.
