Get Off The Couch Or Lose 15 Years of Your Life
Sitting can be very restful but research shows too much of it is actually very bad for your health and should be limited to 3 hours or less. That’s not good news for the office worker, truck driver, or the couch potato (you know who you are). Of course there’s nothing like sitting down to watching TV, surf the internet, or enjoy a cup of coffee at the office, however a study reported sitting six hours a day increased the risk of death by up to 40% and even increased the risk of diabetes and bad cholesterol levels. This infographic explains just how bad sitting for prolonged periods of time can be and how you can take charge.
