Every Hour You Sit Takes A Year Off Your Life

Quote:

Too Much Sitting Is Killing You (Even If You Exercise) by Laura Geggel The researchers also found that excessive sitting was associated with an 18 percent increased risk of dying of cardiovascular disease and a 17 percent increased risk of dying from cancer during the study periods. Sitting for too long was tied to a 91 percent increased risk of getting Type 2 diabetes, and about a 13 and 14 percent increase in the risk of being diagnosed with cancer or heart problems during the studies, respectively.

Surely this isn't true.

P.S. I’ve decided to take this study lying down.
