Turns out it's actually not 10K steps a day for health and wellness! Scientists say the whole “10,000 steps a day” thing was created to sell pedometers and not based on actual data. So what does the data say?
7,000 steps!
7,000-steps a day was associated lower risk of dementia, cardiovascular disease, depression, type-2 diabetes and falling. Yes, 10,000 steps is still great but if you only get 7K in, be proud.

So scientists, and I say, won't spend any time with it,
but I read about this. Are scientists. We're talking about
this ten thousand step concept. Everybody wants to hit ten
thousand steps a day. Did you make it? Do you
do it? Do you follow it? I apparently the ten
thousand number is not the real scientific number to achieve
what you think you're achieving at ten thousand. I knew
(00:21):
it is not based on any data. So why did
they say ten thousand to begin with? I think all
those measuring devices somehow universally concocted it to market the devices.
That's what I think.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
I know when I started to feel when I'm doing
my ten thousand steps, I feel a shift at this
one marker, and it's seven thousand steps.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
That's the number? Is it?
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Really?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
That's the actual number. Seven thousand steps a day was
associated with lower risk of dementia, cardiovascar disease, depression, type
two diabetes, and falling ten thousand steps lower disias RECEI
even more, but not by that much based on the
extra three thousand and steps. So when you get to
your seven thousand, you can feel like you have today,
you did it.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Seven to ten is like the brutal part for me.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
But I guess that difference that seven to ten, that
three thousand doesn't achieve that much more but more but
not that much more. So get to your seven. That
can be your goal. Everything else is icing nice. So
we got a quote for today, When you abandon who
you are to keep someone, you end up losing twice.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
So true. Yeah, be you boo, I.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
