Regular physical activity: A little is good, but is it good enough? 2015 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted Ekelund et al. (1) nicely showed that physical inactivity causes an approximate twofold increase in the numbers of deaths compared with those attributable to obesity [BMI (in kg/m2) .30] in a Euro- pean cohort (n 1/4 334,161) that was followed up to 12.4 y on average. Physical activity (PA) levels were estimated by using a standardized questionnaire or in-person interviews and were found to be inversely associated with all-cause mortality at all levels of BMI and waist circumference. Another important finding from their study is that substantial survival benefits may be achieved by fairly small amounts of moderate-intensity PA: that is, ;20 min/d of brisk walking, which is below the current PA recommendations of !30 min/d on most, if not all, days of the week (or !150 min/wk). These important findings in Caucasians are in line with those recently reported in an Asiatic cohort, in whom 15 min/d or 90 min/wk of moderate-intensity PA was associated with lower all-cause mor- tality, even for persons at risk of cardiovascular disease info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 6.703 2015 NUTRITION & DIETETICS 3 / 80 = 0.038 2015 Q1 T1 3.899 2015 Nutrition and Dietetics 2015 Q1 Medicine (miscellaneous) 2015 Q1 info:eu-repo/semantics/other info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Sanchis-Gomar, F.
