Daily steps and mortality: dose-response analysis
Large prospective study (n=17,000) finding 10,000+ steps/day associated with 46% lower mortality risk compared to <4,000 steps/day in adults over 40.
Step Count Benefits
- 4,000 steps: baseline
- 8,000 steps: 51% mortality reduction
- 12,000 steps: 65% mortality reduction
Pace Matters
Step intensity (steps/min) independently predicts mortality outcomes.
