Sitting is the New Smoking
Above are some statistics about what can happen if you are inactive. I recently read a book where the author label sitting as the next smoking and its true. The numbers above prove it And a new study puts some precise numbers on the different types of cancer that might be associated with too much sitting around can do. For every two hours spent sitting in front of the computer or television, the average person raises his or her risk of colon cancer by 8 percent, of endometrial cancer by 10 percent and of lung cancer by 6 percent. Now that is a scary reality
Below is some interesting information on just how excessive sitting can effect different parts of the body.
So get up and move!!!!
