Physical activity provides many benefits such as helping to maintain muscle mass, strength, and stamina, and bone strength. It can help reduce depression, stress, and constipation. So, if you don't already exercise, talk to your doctor about including at least 30 minutes or more of moderate activity, like walking, on 5 or more days of the week as you are able. If your doctor approves, start where you are (perhaps 5 to 10 minutes each day) and work up to the goal of 30 minutes -- as you are able.
