Sunrider® International Chief Medical Officer Dr. Reuben Chen, MD, was featured as an expert advisor in Parade magazine’s recent article, “How Long Should Your Daily Walks Be To Stay Fit After 50?” The piece provides evidence-based guidance on daily walking routines to support fitness, mobility, and overall well-being for adults over 50.
Parade is a widely read lifestyle publication in the United States, covering health, wellness, entertainment, and cultural topics. With a broad national readership, the magazine is known for delivering practical tips and expert insights that readers can apply in their daily lives.
In the article, Dr. Chen emphasized the many benefits of daily walking for older adults, noting, “Walking is low-impact, making it joint-friendly while still effectively countering age-related muscle loss, bone density decline, and cardiovascular risks. It significantly improves balance and coordination, which are critical for preventing falls, a leading cause of injury and loss of independence in older adults.”
Dr. Chen also provided actionable advice for building a sustainable walking routine, including breaking up exercise into shorter sessions, progressing gradually based on fitness level, and incorporating variations such as hills, intervals, or light weights to enhance intensity safely. His insights underscore his commitment to longevity, functional fitness, and helping individuals maintain independence as they age.
