Uphill or Downhill?

My wild Wend daughter, Carolina, just sent me a link for this article.

In a nutshell, this Austrian researcher found that walking downhill may lower sugar levels and walking uphill may reduce triglyceride levels in a person's bloodstream.

While I don't have any Alps to hike up, I guess I could certainly benefit by walking up stairs on a more regular basis.
