How many steps per day is healthy

The recommendation for daily steps for optimal health, according to Andrew Huberman, is not strictly defined by a specific number. He mentions that the commonly heard "10,000 steps per day" is actually an arbitrary number and not based on specific scientific research. In terms of overall physical activity, integrating moderate to low intensity exercise, like walking, into daily routines is emphasized. This could be achieved through various simple activities such as using a walking treadmill, parking farther away in parking lots, or even taking stairs instead of elevators. The key is consistent movement throughout the day rather than adhering to a strict step count 1 2.
