About 2,400 years ago, Hippocrates said that “walking is the best remedy for human health.” In fact, walking is a way to be healthy, which means that regular walking reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases by 31% and prevents a number of diseases. The staff and even students of Andijan State Medical Institute are well aware of this.
Employees of the Department of Pediatric Surgery, Faculty of Pediatrics, took the initiative in the project “5000 steps towards health.” At the end of the working day, the professors and teachers who participated in the project had a heart-to-heart talk in the fresh air and exchanged views on the benefits of walking.
