Dr. Arthur Wang noted that a sedentary lifestyle is a modifiable stroke risk factor, explaining that regular physical activity prevents arterial plaque buildup.
Wang recommends at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise five times a week, which can include various activities like walking, gardening, or group workouts.
