When it comes to your health, It seems that sitting too much may be as bad for you as smoking. If you sit for many hours a day in a traditional office job, you may be interested in a new study. This study suggests that you should get an hour of “brisk exercise” every day. Researchers say this brisk exercise can help office workers reduce their risk of an early death. Many office workers spend a large part of their time seated and physically inactive. A lack of physical activity is linked to some 5.3 million deaths worldwide each year. The researchers say that makes a sedentary lifestyle more deadly than smoking. The new report said that a sedentary lifestyle can cause many diseases, including heart disease, diabetes and even some cancers. These diseases cost the world economy $67.5 billion every year. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggests adults get 150 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise every week.
