Is there any way to turn off the step/flights recording in health kit?

I can't find any way to switch this off and what makes no sense is it seems to count individual steps in the data rather than collating data within a set period i.e. every day as one entry.

I keep manually deleting the data but I'd rather just switch it off. Does anyone know how?

I havent fiddled with it much but this might help,Open the Health app. For each item that is displayed on the Dashboard tap on Source. Then turn off Show on Dashboard.

I wanted to turn this feature off as well because I don't really need to use it either.

I've already tried to turn off show on dashboard, but the Steps and Walking & Running distances still record. The only difference is its not on the dashboard, its in the "Health Data" folder under "All"

I've googled about it, and if I read correctly it's a built in feature that can't be 'turned off'

I have read that it can't be turned off. But I've also read that it doesn't drain battery life or anything running in the background
