Perceived faster walking speed is linked to lower diabetes risk, study finds.

A new study from Japan's Doshisha University suggests that people who think they walk faster than others of their age and sex have a lower risk of diabetes and other metabolic conditions. The research, involving nearly 25,000 participants with obesity or a high waist circumference, found that those who considered themselves "faster walkers" showed a significantly reduced risk of diabetes. The study, published in Scientific Reports, highlights the potential health benefits of a perceived faster walking pace.
