They also had a lower risk of heart attack and stroke.   \"We were surprised that such simple exercise reduced all-cause mortality,\" says study author Dr Sophie Paddock, from the University of East Anglia and Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals Foundation Trust in the UK. .   \n    \n\n    \n\n\n   She and her colleagues looked at data from about 480,000 participants, ranging in age from their mid-30s to their mid-80s.

So, how many stairs is enough to climb?One study found that mountain climbing 6-10 flights per day was associated with a decreased risk of premature death.And another study found that climbing 5 flights a day reduces risk 20% reduction in cardiovascular disease.   To calculate this, researchers analyzed participants&#39; risk of heart disease based on factors such as blood pressure, cholesterol, smoking history, family history, and genetic risk factors. Participants filled out a questionnaire about their lifestyle and exercise habits, such as going up and down stairs.  For 12 years, people who climb stairs have successfully prevented heart disease.

Review published Earlier this year, we found that a minimum of 4 to 8 weeks is required to start improving cardiometabolic risk.
