I went to visit Belgium, ate the food there, with no worries, and walked around 12K a day on average. I lost 20lbs during the two weeks there and weeks after I got back to the US. The impact lasted for months for me.
Dr. Gundry You are helping so many people who either don’t have the funds to see you or who live to far away to be a patient. We thank you greatly for sharing your knowledge with us!
Thank you Dr. Gundry! Quick takeaway: 2700 - 3900 steps per day - and you can break it up into "exercise snacks" - good to walk to get sunlight in the early morning, and good to take a walk in the evening after dinner.
I have done a lot of these tips for years. I’m 64 married to a 54 year old man. I do as much as I can on my own to keep my strength up. It’s me who lifts the 5 gallon jug of water on to the dispenser stand. If I can do it, I will. My grandma was 84 years old when she mowed her lawn with a push mower!!
I walk 10-12 thousand steps almost everyday but I don’t walk for weight loss. My weight is normal. I love walking and I can say it helps me to have good health. I don’t count my steps but my phone count all those steps. From the steps above, I walk 20-25 minutes after breakfast and 40-45 minutes after dinner. I never eat something for lunch. Due to my personal experience, walking and changing my diet changed my life . I didn’t go to visit my doctor for some health issues but I overcame on all those issues just by walking and changing my diet. I did my bloodwork last week and got my Hba1c of 5.2 and the doctor office called me that everything was normal. From the view point of health benefits I will continue walking. It’s kind a habit now and makes me happy.
I walk at least between 12 and 13000 steps a day sometimes even more I walk 13 blocks to my train to get to work each morning then when I get to work there's no elevator or escalators as a custodial worker everything is done manually so I think I get plenty of exercise
It depends on your health, diet and if you are doing other activities. But 10k steps walking is a good suggestion. Obviously, shorter, if you run/jog. It's all cumulative Metabolic Equivalent Task hours...
Good talk. About the stairs only walk down it is not good to do without having warm mucles and blooding your joints because of the high intensity on your knees and ankles . Much better take the elevator down and walk up the stairs! Much better for you for your joints and as motion.
I am 83 and a widow. I live in a large apartment building having lost my husband five years ago. Now each day I walk 1200 steps each hour starting at 10 am until 1 pm per day along the hall beside my apartment. That means that I walk about 5000 steps each day. I can do it every day with no worry about rain or snow at all! It’s great because I get to talk to my other neighbours as they go about their business! I love doing it and don’t worry much about my weight! I no longer have a car but right beside my apartment there is a big shopping centre so I can walk there to get my groceries, hair cuts etc. I feel great and have my health as well as staying in touch with other people!
well well...agree with all that you said, but when I start walking in the morning, I just can't stop until 9-10 km . I just feel I can't stop keep moving and it is quite enjoyable. I want to slow down, but I am only 71 and think I will do someday less km. By the way, I reversed the DT2 and feel fantastic, so I'll keep on moving and eat OMAD...🥳
Good tips to move more. Is true that generally in Europe we walk much more than in the US, but hings have changed a lot and we have adopted the american way of living, fast food deliver to our home and driving to a big supermarket instead of fresh food and walking to the city market
We love your presentations & you are helping so many people at least try to get healthy! I’m a little confused about whether to take a B12 vitamin or not as I have read that it really doesn’t do much good. Your thoughts?
Dr Gundry, what you say is confusing. In the beginning you say that walking doesn't make you loose weight then you start talking about how much way people lose when they live in cities and they walk? Will you please explain???
it's possible to lose weight with or without walking. weight loss is 80% diet, 20% exercise and other factors like water, sunlight, sleep, relationships, avoiding stress, etc. overweight people can lose a lot of weight with IF and low-carb diet and zero exercise. walking is great for mood, heart, lungs, muscle and immune system but not so great for burning calories.
Dr. Gundry, I have a question regarding intermittent fasting. I have trouble with the eating window because I just do not feel hungry at 7pm. I have a low carb lunch around 1pm and then I can go on until well 9pm or even later without any sense of hunger. I cannot see myself eating at 6-7pm, just because I need to keep the time window. What do you suggest? Thank you
It means you like the OMAD ( One meal a day) routine. But women if they still have their period should fast according their cycle. Or it can mess up your hormones.
@@annamaria1972 No I dnt like OMAD, because I do eventually get hungry, usually around 9-10pm. Also,women can do OMAD, why not? They just have to make sure, they get enough calories, thats all.
@@nadiah3664 You can put your eating window whenever you like. But it's best to fast after sun goes down because our metabolism slows down. Of course women can do OMAD but not all the time.
@@annamaria1972 What you say is INCORRECT, women can do OMAD all the time they want, the only concern is if they are getting the nutrition they need. If one meal per day provides the necessary calories and all the nutriets they need, then there is NO PROBLEM. So bottom line, your answers are incorrect and I actually asked this question to Dr. Gundry, sadly I didnt get an answer from him. And sure, I can set my eating time window as I want. That was not what I was asking him. I wanted to know, how am I supposed to reduce the time window, if I dont feel hungry within that window. And that is something you havent answered either. Just saying.
i used to love my 2-10 pm window. now i love my 9-5 pm window. are you doing IF for weight loss, maintenance, convenience, preference? eat whenever you want. what time to you go to sleep? avoid food for 2-3 hrs prior to sleep.
In Samoa we walked early in the morning to the plantation, walk to school eat organic no Spraying aloud in my country we don't counted our steps it is normal to us 7days a week and we walking after our food evening too, we don't eat meat that much but more of fish seafood, sea weeds and we live 95 to 💯 years plus meats is a treats.
I’m in my late 30s and can tell you, 3-4k steps is nowhere near sufficient. I’d suggest 7-8k is more apt, but I instead typically do 10-13k daily and see massive benefits in energy, weight loss, mood and keeping my body supple.
Why did you start the video by undermining the importance of walking and then proceed to discuss the benefits of walking for the rest of the video??? If you think 2-3k steps is enough you clearly have never tracked your steps. In order to walk that little you would have to consciously avoid walking (even the average American gets 4K). My observation: each indigenous tribe I have researched with little to no chronic disease get an average of 12k steps a day.
My younger sister at 51 years old how far to walk a day she Taking her dog for a walk 2 times a day.when she get up in the morning to going to bed to bed in. The evening all most. Over 1000 miles A-day.

It’s “too” far away not “to”.

7500 steps is the answer.
Cause of health wise there is no beneficial difference between 7500 and 10,000
I walk at least between 12 and 13000 steps a day sometimes even more I walk 13 blocks to my train to get to work each morning then when I get to work there's no elevator or escalators as a custodial worker everything is done manually so I think I get plenty of exercise

You had an Irish gentleman on your show who said that no matter how many steps you are currently taking you should do 5,000 more.
Love his voice it's so easy to listen to. Thank you,

I can't sit too long anyway because my back will complain. So while watching TV I do as Gundry says , I stand up and stretch and do some squat 😊👍

Its about 1 hr walking so a good start to getting fit
What about walking vs running. Would be interesting to watch a video about this topic.
For cardiac and type 2 diabetes Actually how many steps are required ❤
Thanks, perfect information.
I'm about to get my steps in 😊
Dr Gundry, what you say is confusing. In the beginning you say that walking doesn't make you loose weight then you start talking about how much way people lose when they live in cities and they walk? Will you please explain???
If you want to mimic the time-tested model of indigenous groups across the world. Aim for 12k
it's possible to lose weight with or without walking. weight loss is 80% diet, 20% exercise and other factors like water, sunlight, sleep, relationships, avoiding stress, etc.
overweight people can lose a lot of weight with IF and low-carb diet and zero exercise. walking is great for mood, heart, lungs, muscle and immune system but not so great for burning calories.
Simple but vital information!
Great information 🔥
Thankful n heaven bless

Walk around while on the phone.good idea

🤣🤣😂😂 .... exercise snacks....!!!! That's a new and great one Doc...!!!
The less we move the faster we die
Hahaha very true. And before people die of inactivity, they will walk......on a canne or with a crutcher
Exercise for good health is maybe different from exercise for longevity.
This is interesting.
i know i want to hear this
lol this is so true
Hi Dr gundry does milk destroy the testosterone even if the milk is a2 casein
I love, to walk
My dog is by the door everyday at 6am..lol
Walk 30 minutes a day.
Aerobic 30 minutes a day. Your heart rate has to get up to a certain level
I’m in my late 30s and can tell you, 3-4k steps is nowhere near sufficient. I’d suggest 7-8k is more apt, but I instead typically do 10-13k daily and see massive benefits in energy, weight loss, mood and keeping my body supple.
At 30 think 30mins of horizontal jogging / day. More is better.
Thank you, another myth gone crazy dismissed, great advice.
"The good ol' day." 😂

And who counts steps, it's all about sweat.

1000 miles a day? I call bullsh*t on that! LOL
🎉
Has anyone studied the number of steps any other animal takes in a day?
Every indigenous tribe that have been observed to have little to no chronic disease get at least 12k
my 15-year old overweight dachshund waddles around for 40-50 steps per day.
🙏🏻🌷✨🙏🏻
So much company scams!
🏴🥃📡🥃🇺🇸
The Japanese character for 10000 looks like a walking man. 万 (sort of)
Much better to do aerobics 30 min a day 5 days a week
wrong=unsubscribed.
