(6/28, Robertson) reports, "Modest amounts of daily walking can
significantly reduce the risk for incident diabetes in obese and
relatively inactive individuals," according to a study
published online June 20 in the journal Diabetes Care. In a five-year
study of some 1,826 native Americans, those "who took at least 3500
steps (approximately 1.75 miles) a day were 29% less likely to develop
diabetes compared with more sedentary participants."
