Do you want to live a long, healthy life? Walk for 25 minutes everyday

Researchers have found that moderate exercise could halve the risk of dying from a heart attack for someone in their fifties or sixties, reported Independent.

A new study presented at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress suggested that regular exercise can increase life span.

A group of 69 healthy non-smokers, aged between  30 and 60, who did not take regular exercise were tested as part of the study at Saarland University, Germany.

Blood tests taken during six months of regular aerobic exercise, high-intensity interval training and strength training showed that an anti-ageing process had been triggered and helped repair old DNA.
