Living close to nature and spending time outside has significant and wide-ranging health benefits -- according to new research from the University of East Anglia.

A new report published today reveals that exposure to greenspace reduces the risk of type II diabetes, cardiovascular disease, premature death, preterm birth, stress, and high blood pressure.

Populations with higher levels of greenspace exposure are also more likely to report good overall health -- according to global data involving more than 290 million people.
