How strong is the evidence for Swimming?

Swimming is a load-bearing-free aerobic modality with a real but comparatively modest observational evidence base for longevity. That evidence is currently rated moderate (58/100), built on 7 published studies, including 2 randomized controlled trials and 1 meta-analysis -- a reasonable base, but not yet enough for full certainty.
