The many benefits of walking

You learned when you were barely a year old, so chances are you're pretty good at it by now. Put in 30 minutes a day and your body will thank you; 60 minutes and your doctor will gush.

We definitely agree and found that according to the Mayo Clinic you can achieve the following health benefits just by walking.

* Lower low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (the "bad" cholesterol)
* Raise high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (the "good" cholesterol)
* Lower your blood pressure
* Reduce your risk of or manage type 2 diabetes
* Manage your weight
* Improve your mood
* Stay strong and fit

Hope you will walk more after reading these benefits! :-)
