Exercise & Physical activity:(an important way for intervention in metabolic syndrome)
EXERCISE & PHYSICAL ACTIVITY • It is currently recommended that everyone engage in 30 minutes daily of moderate-intensity physical activity.
EXERCISE & PHYSICAL ACTIVITY • Moderate-intensity activities (40 to 60% of maximum capacity) are equivalent to a brisk walk (15–20 minutes per mile).
