A member asked:
Is 90 minutes per day of exercise better than 30 for lowering cholesterol. i know 30 mins a day is recommended, but would brisk walking for 90 help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Would not hurt: It would be prudent to see your doctor after 3-4 months of exercise to see if it has been helpful, and to ascertain if you may need medication. Wish you good health!
