Taking a minimum of 15 minutes of exercise a day can extend life expectancy by up to three years - Germany’s Society of Neurologists and the Stroke Society.
A regular program of exercise can reduce the risk of stroke, cardiovascular illness, cancer and diabetes. The advice is based on a study of over 400,000 participants in Taiwan whose health status was checked regularly over eight years.The conclusion was that the more a person exercises the less chance they have of falling ill.
The recommended 15 minutes a day is half what the World Health Organisation advises people to take.
