Clinical trials are planned, but the findings so far have been described as exciting, important and potentially a major step forward. This is particularly exciting because these drugs are already used to treat other conditions and this means to treat other conditions and this m ea ns really to treat other conditions and this mea ns really ca n to treat other conditions and this means really can we can move to testing and people much faster than we would for other drugs and their processes. We would for other drugs and their processes.

Scientists at the University Of Glasgow, who analysed data from more than 250,000 people, said walking reduced the risk of the same conditions by a quarter. 0ur reporter Vishala Sri Pathma has more. The commute to work, for some, is the only exercise they get all day. For those of us that cycle to the office, theres some good news. Experts from the University Of Glasgow say it reduces the risk of developing cancer and Heart Disease. In fact, cycling to work is linked to a 45 lower risk of developing cancer, and a 46 lower threat of cardiovascular disease. That compares to driving or even taking public transport. It also means you are less likely to die younger. Walking has its benefits too, although its not as effective as cycling. You have to walk a total of two hours a week at an average speed of three mph for the Health Benefits to kick in. So we need to make it easier for people to cycle. So we need to increase cycle lanes, we need to have cycle city hire schemes, subsidised bike schemes, have people have showers at work, so they do not feel sweaty when they get to work. Theres a whole host of things to make it easier for the average person to cycle. And if we can do that, more people will be on bikes, and were going to improve public health, just like places like amsterdam and copenhagen have done. Charities welcomed the findings.
