Activities like walking, jogging, swimming and cycling may help keep you out of the hospital for a variety of reasons, new research shows.
Overall, the results suggest"aiming to increase moderate to vigorous physical activity by just 20 minutes a day is a really effective strategy to reduce risk of hospitalization across an incredibly broad range of conditions," lead study author Eleanor L. Watts, Ph.D., tells TODAY.com.
There are some limitations to the study. For example, 97% of the participants identified as white, meaning it's challenging to know how much the results would apply to other groups. But other research has shown that"under the guidance of a physician, physical activity seems to be really broadly beneficial" across race, ethnicity and age, Watts says.
Also, remember that the study only looked at correlations with hospitalization, not whether physical activity could prevent the development of health conditions entirely.
