Walking around 14-16k steps per day. Still seeing the effects of aging on my eyes over the last few years, but I do seem to complain a lot less about being tired than the 20-somethings I work with :)

Thank you, Michael. ❤ Greetings from Berlin, Germany.

[@Charl480]

This was a topic, I reckon many people needed proper medical clarification on. Thankyou Doctor!!

[@bradl2636]

Hey Dr. Michael, Just checked your youtube, really great stuff. I was wondering are you looking for a short or long form video editor ? Or Whole KZbin management ?

7-8k ~ about 5km

Just keep walking, walking walking, just keep waking....then you'll never die. Have no idea how many steps I take a day, but normally walk between 3kms and 5kms a day at age 66. Plan to consistently reach 5kms and go from there. Can't see going much further, more to life than walking.

Hey doctor, please make a video about the healthiest way to actually cure myopia. What I mean by cure is not to prevent the progression of myopia or using glasses, but to reduce the existing myopia to 0.

I asked "how far is 3,000 steps" all things equal . . . that actually means ABOUT THREE MILES PER DAY.

[@hugomontoya8759]

Walking will not do anything. Run straight for at least three-five miles without stopping. That always helps me out. No stopping though. Come back and let me know how that helped. Do it outside on the trails so you can see the adjustment in your eyes.

[@tbqhwyf]

Walking won't do anything because you said so, despite all the scientific data we have that supports the benefits of walking?

[@hugomontoya8759]

@@tbqhwyf Just helping people out. If you wanna be lazy that’s on you. Thanks for the comment.

[@aedaldaniel]

@@hugomontoya8759take a book that probably will save you.

[@marynlyn]

Oops. 3,000 steps = about 1.3 miles/day . . . 7,000 steps, about 3.1 miles. So, at least a bit more than 1 miles/day, and optimally, about 3 miles.
