More Time Spent Sitting Can Lead to a Higher Risk of Death

According to a new study by the American Cancer Society, the more you sit, the higher your risk of death. Ignoring other factors such as obesity and physical activity, the study found that women who sat more than six hours per day were 37% more likely to die sooner than those sitting only 3 hours per day while men were 18% more likely to die sooner under the same parameters.  When factors such as lack of physical activity were added, the numbers increased to 94% for women and 48% for men for the increased risk of dying sooner for sitting for more than 6 hours per day.  The study shows that sometimes its better to go outside and be active this summer than sitting on the couch in the AC.  Check out more details in the links below.
