Your long-term health isn’t just about genetics or circumstances. It’s shaped by the choices you make every day. Research published by The Lancet and eClinicalMedicine shows that even very small daily changes, such as adding just five minutes of moderate movement,can reduce mortality by around 10%, with benefits seen even in the least active adults. Reducing sitting by 30 minutes a day also lowers mortality by about 7%.

Those who combine healthier eating with less sedentary time experience the greatest benefit.
