Got 11 Minutes?

Spring is in the air, and it is a great time to get out for walk. And a simple, rather short walk, could change your life!  New research from the University of Cambridge reports that one in ten early deaths could be prevented if people exercised for just half the recommended level of daily physical activity. The analysis showed that 75 minutes per week is enough to lower the risk of chronic diseases including heart disease, stroke and cancers.  This equates to 11 minutes of brisk walking, dancing, biking or other moderate exercise done daily. 
Of course, if you exercise more, your benefits are greater.  Researchers in this study calculated that if everyone exercised for 150 minutes per week, one in six early deaths could be prevented!   Let's go for a walk today :)
