Are you among those who don’t like going to the gym or jogging in the park? Know that simply moving around on foot or by bicycle, for example to go to school or work or for regular travel, is good for your health, reduces the onset of chronic diseases and even mortality. It is estimated that every year, in the countries of the European Union, more than 100 thousand premature deaths could be avoided if every adult walked or cycled for 15 minutes more a day.
Yet, in our country, only 42 percent of compatriots between 18 and 69 years old practice “active mobility” – that is, the choice of cycling or walking, as an alternative to the use of motor vehicles – as revealed the Cnapps Pass Surveillance data – National Center for Disease Prevention and Health Promotion of the Istituto Superiore di Sanità, released on the occasion of the European mobility week, from 16 to 23 September.
