A new study by the European Association for the Study of Obesity suggests that people dieting for weight loss should walk around 8,500 steps daily to maintain their results and prevent weight regain. The study highlights that 80% of individuals who lose weight tend to regain it within three to five years. Researchers analyzed clinical trials involving 4,000 patients to determine the optimal step count during weight loss. The findings indicate that increasing daily steps can significantly aid in weight loss and maintenance. The rising rates of obesity worldwide pose serious health risks and financial burdens on healthcare systems.
