First seen May 09, 2026 · Last updated May 09, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a 2014 Danish law requiring 45 minutes of daily physical activity in public schools actually increased kids' activity and helped with weight. Researchers measured movement and BMI in over 5,000 children before and after the reform. The goal was to see if a nationwide policy can make a real difference in children's health.
