The number of steps you should walk every day to start seeing benefits to your health is lower than previously thought, according to the largest analysis to investigate this. The study, published in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, found that walking at least 3967 steps a day started to reduce the risk of dying from any cause, and 2337 steps a day reduced the risk of dying from diseases of the heart and blood vessels (cardiovascular disease).

      I’m pretty sure you meant tod as in “today”, but it’s doubly funny because “Tod” also means “Death” in German (among other regional languages, probably), so I read it as you lamenting your lack of steps and then just simply popping out of existence with a Black&White like “death” sound effect.
