Overall findings This is the first study to provide direct evidence of the association between active and non-active commuting and health outcomes over a long period for Scotland. The study identified clear and consistently lower risks of adverse health outcomes among active commuters, especially cyclists. Compared with non-active commuters, cyclists had 47% lower risk of death from any cause, 10% lower risk of any hospitalisation, 24% lower risk of CVD hospitalisation and 30% lower risk of receiving a CVD related prescription, 24% lower risk of cancer hospitalisation and 51% lower risk of cancer death, and a 20% lower risk of receiving a mental health related prescription. Pedestrian commuters, compared with non-active commuters, had a 9% lower risk of any hospitalisation, 10% lower risk of CVD hospitalisation or of receiving a CVD related prescription, and 7% lower risk of receiving a mental health related prescription. However, cycle commuters were twice as likely as non-active commuters to be hospitalised due to a traffic collision.

And the price of the food that I grow can only go up.
