welcome back to gma. we want to get right to our cover story. two stories out on exercise and its impact on longevity. both suggest there may be more impactful ways to get physically fit than taking those daily 10,000 steps. our medical correspondent, dr. sutton, is here to break it down. doctor, 10,000 steps. we've heard that. we wear the wrist bands. we keep up with it on our smart phones and everything else. but there's another way you can possibly do it within 20, 25 minutes. if you're going to take 10,000 steps that takes an hour and a half a day. >> that's five miles. that's hard to ask for anyone. they looked at over 12,000 participants and found those who had at least 20 to 25 minutes of moderate to vigorous activity that can include anything from a brisk walk, cycling, jogging, they were living longer. they looked at the other end of

the spectrum, those who spent most of their days lying down, sitting down, had an increase of 40% mortality risk. just an example that movement is a true key to longevity. it on takes a couple minutes a day just to get that benefit. >> moving is so important. another study on stairs. our intern riley is right outside of the studio up the stairs right now. riley said when i signed up for an intern, i didn't know it meant this. >> doing exactly what the study shows. this study is larger, looked at over 400,000 people. it found that climbing just five flights of stairs a day -- i know that sound likes a lot. the amount of stairs in the studio are easier to do. climbing just five flights a day are associated with a decreased risk of cardiovascular risk, heart attack and stroke. she's doing the best to decrease her risk. it also found you can simply do that twice a day. choose one flight a stair, go up it two to three times a day, if you're working in an office,

choosing a bathroom on a different floor might be an example. now that i say that out loud, climbing stairs as you're running to the bathroom might not be helpful. [ laughter ] >> i wasn't gonna say that. you pointed it out yourself. >> they help you with cardiovascular disease, reducing your risk of diabetes, help with muscle strength and growth. it's really beneficial. >> hopefully, riley will stop climbing those stairs. you are off camera. you can stop now. riley, you say you're going to trade the stairs for steps? >> i think it's a great alternative. i feel great. i'm getting my steps in. this is so much better than 10,000 steps. >> i did notice george will take the stairs rather than the elevator. >> he knows the key. >> outside of exercise, what are some other things people can do to keep themselves feeling younger and healthier? >> the basic things. number one, sleep. sleep is vital.

it helps with your immune system, especially as we step into this viral season. watch your diet. we don't often have enough protein. use protein rich food, limiting added sugar, making sure you're doing your best to move. movement is key. if you can, at least those step, that would be helpful. if not home strength training, squats, pushup, planks. those are methods to increase your cardiovascular health. >> all right, doc. thanks for the advice. i'm going to throw it to the guys. george makes us all feel lazy. >> you put quite an image in our head this morning. thank you.

included, cope with some form of anxiety. for many of us, family members are dealing with mental health struggle, too, including kids and their parents. but imagine if we opened up to one another and shared our burdens? it could be a hidden blessing during a tough time. there's no mistaking the bond between tiffany turner moon and 13-year-old daughter bella. >> we're very, very, very close. >> i feel like i can just tell her anything. >> reporter: the 33-year-old mom sharing their relationship on tik tok with her 166,000 followers. >> here are five ways i support her mental health as we prep for back to school. >> reporter: and getting candid about their shared mental health struggles. >> one thing i have learned in my 30s, not only to prioritize my mental health but to teach my kids to do the same. when i got pregnant with her i had to drop out of college. >> i did struggle with my emotions like during tough periods of school. >> reporter: while their connection may be unique, their experience isn't.

a recent study from harvard's making caring common project found that the emotional health of parents and teens is deeply interwoven and they suffer from anxiety and depression at about the same rates. this sounds like very sad and negative news, but you say there can be a positive here. >> parents are experiencing anxiety and depression can understand what others who are going through this challenge feel. that includes their own teen. they have the opportunity to start modelling effective communication. >> reporter: to tap into those positives, experts say parents should first focus on their own mental health. >> when you feel most depressed where does it show up and how does it show up in your parenting? >> reporter: on some level, can this make you closer to your teen, by struggling together? >> of course. they can try coping skills together. if you are modelling as an adult to be vulnerable, your children will be more vulnerable with you as well. >> reporter: and maybe the most important yet challenging tip, listening not fixing.

>> especially when you are an anxious parent, all you want to do is jump in to save your child from any stresses and challenges. but what we are hearing from teens is what they really want you to do is just to listen. >> reporter: tiffany and bella already embracing these strategies and supporting each other. >> we practice mental health. she struggles with anxiety. when she's just like, listen, i'm really struggling, sometimes we'll just go out, get in the sunlight. when i have anxiety, she's soothing. she'll be like, mom, just breathe. it's not just her learning from me. i have learned a lot from her. >> it feels nice just having someone to talk to who's not gonna judge me, but help me walk through it. >> and walking through it together is part of the power in mental health struggles. if you're open and willing to honestly connect with other, guys, it's a way of really strengthening your relationship. >> it's so wonderful that we're so much more open in discussing it.

>> halloween. >> he loves halloween. only six days away. [ laughter ] there's still plenty of time to get into the spirit of the season. not too late, george. you can carve a pumpkin. that's right. internet is full of tips for making sure your jack-o-lantern stays looking fresh until the trick or treaters arrive. becky worley tried some of them out. good morning, becky. what you got for us? >> reporter: spooky michael. i like it. we're carving pumpkins. it is the season that can be a bit tricky. heat can really decompose these things fast. but having a putrid, nasty rotting vegetable on your front porch, that's not exactly the kind of scary we're going for. one minute you have a cute jack-o-lantern and next, ew, find out if there's anything you can do about that. i buy three pumpkins. first i'll carve one the way i

normally do, badly. my regular old pumpkin. yeah. cut the top off, little face in the front. normal pumpkin. >> here is a trick to having your pumpkin stay fresh for longer. >> reporter: but you know, the internet has different ideas for preserving my pumpkin. method one, soak in a diluted bleach and water solution. the idea here is that the bleach kills any bacteria on the outside of the pumpkin that could make it decompose faster. now, another tip is to cut a hole in the bottom, or the back. that's because the actual stem of the pumpkin right here, that's where all its nutrients come from. for the candle, they say use an electric tea light that generates no heat. but if bleach is a no go for you, there is another way. peppermint oil. you dilute one tablespoon in each quart of water and then you put the pumpkin in it and clean it with a brush. it's a natural antibacterial.

so i scrub the pumpkin and, aroma is strong. starting to look like a pumpkin. and peppermint pumpkin. now the porch. it's time to get spooky. first few days of our experiment, we had a heat wave. after another 24 hours -- day 3, my bleached pumpkin, little mold in there but it's holding on. the peppermint pumpkin, doing okay. uh-oh. the normal pumpkin looking pretty grim in there. day 4. the morbid crunch of time pushed my normal pumpkin towards the

crypt. ew, my normal pumpkin is now my melted moldy pumpkin. the peppermint pumpkin did a little better. then the bleached pumpkin definitely has the best structure of all three. the internet was right. with a little extra effort, you can prolong your pumpkin's short but spooky life. eight days and the heat wave later and here's what we've got. my normal pumpkin is nasty. peppermint okay. and the only one that's even remotely viable is the bleached pumpkin. few more things. i did use that bleach spray and i just sprayed inside of it, trying to beat down the mold and the nasties. the internet also says you can use vaseline or olive oil to kind of keep the mold from growing on those cut parts. one thing i did learn is if i had it to do over again, i

wouldn't cut the bottom of the pumpkin. i couldn't get in there. this thing started to decompose. trust me, the last thing i wanted to do was put my hand in there. the bug, the mold, it is definitely creepy crawly over here. >> becky, welcome to halloween. [ laughter ] >> i'm gonna pass on carving a pumpkin.
