without a lot of salt, in a low sodium, you
have to do a lot of walking. Uh, you don't
have to do a whole lot of different exercises because
sometimes your bones and muscles won't take it. But if
you could take at least ten minute walks a day,

(03:03):
and if you can get it and now the twenty,
then that's good. But have good thoughts as much as
you can't.
