Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Becoming more physically active typically leads to improved health outcomes such as improved cholesterol levels, reduced risk of type 2 diabetes, and improved blood pressure. Increased risk of osteoporosis is not a typical result of becoming more physically active. In fact, regular weight-bearing exercise can help improve bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis.
