Exercise is the best tool for delaying illness and death, even in small doses, and especially for the least active people. The study, led by Ulf Ekelund of the Norwegian School of Sport Science, estimates that if the least active 20% of people added five minutes of moderate-to-vigorous exercise per day, equivalent to a brisk walk, 6% of premature deaths in this high-risk group could be prevented.

The fact that he's, you know, mobilizing and starting his day at 12:08, per reporting from the New York Times, is concerning, Gupta said. Gupta also pointed to Trump's behavior when a pharmaceutical exec collapsed during an Oval Office event earlier this month. His response to somebody fainting in the Oval Office really conveyed that he didn't show any signs of concern. He didn't really do anything. He was slow to respond,

By now, it's hard to imagine anyone arguing against the importance of heart health. But what seems a little fuzzier is how one achieves a healthy heart. While engaging in aspirin therapy or popping statins may lure some into a false sense of heart security, studies show that these Band-Aid solutions don't hit heart health at its...well, heart.

Grip strength was found to be a better predictor of premature death than other barometers, like blood pressure, in a massive study that tracked the health of 139,691 people for a median of 40 years. Another review of literature on the subject concluded: "There is adequate evidence to support the use of grip strength as an explanatory or predictive biomarker of specific outcomes such as generalized strength and function, bone mineral density, fractures and falls, nutritional status, disease status and comorbidity load, cognition, depression and sleep, hospital-related variables and mortality."

Older people who onlywalk 4,000 daily steps once a week still reduce their risk of dying early by a quarter, a study suggests. Staying active is known to bring a wide range of health benefits. But many people in their 60s, 70s and beyond may struggle for a variety of reasons to maintain the step count they used to reach. Until now it has been unclear how much people need to do as they age to reap the rewards.

Actively engaging with music, such as singing or playing a wind instrument, improves lung function, enhancing oxygen delivery to the bloodstream and brain, which benefits physical and mental performance.

"Whether it's a young person who brushes off a fall or someone older who thinks it's just a part of aging, it's important to understand that falls can lead to complications like infections or long-term disability."

"In general, individuals who went to bed earlier engaged in more frequent and longer physical activity per day than those who habitually went to bed later."

Walking speed at age 45 has been linked to significant brain aging markers, with slower walkers experiencing greater cognitive decline and reduced brain volume over time.

It's hard to bring those days back since we live in a totally different era right now. But what parents can do now is to create specific times when everyone has to put down their phones and play a game.

Failure to do this will risk a reduction in physical activity levels, a negative impact on physical and mental health, greater health inequalities and lower productivity.
