    AbstractMinimally. Regular moderate-intensity walking for a period of 4 or more weeks minimally decreased total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels by about 7 mg/dL in women with overweight or obesity (strength of recommendation [SOR]: C, systematic review and meta-analysis on disease-oriented evidence). For adults ages 40 to 65 years, regular walking for 3 or more months inconsistently affected cholesterol and triglyceride levels (SOR: C, based on 3 randomized controlled trials [RCTs] with disease-oriented evidence).
