The research team from the University of Sydney and the University of Southern Denmark have found a correlation between dementia as well as exercise. According to the research, it was found that along with aiming for 10000 steps a day, one also needs to ensure to maintain a quick pace.
Moreover, the study of the research was conducted by studying 78,500 adults using health tracking systems. Therefore Dr Matthew from the University of Sydney suggests that people also need to aim to walk faster. Besides, it was found that individuals who took steps as low as 4000 steps were able to reduce dementia-related symptoms by 25%. Furthermore, according to the research team, the outcomes of these researches could play an essential role in designing an exercise program to ensure the prevention as well as treatment of several chronic diseases. In addition to their fitness data with their consent, their medical history was also studied carefully by obtaining data from medical registries.
