Sitting: Are You Risking Heart Attack- Or Not? - FORD BREWER MD MPH


Listen Later

Sitting disease is not just click-bait or fun headlines. It's a serious health risk. Detailed biochemical research shows that our metabolism slows down in less than an hour of inactivity. An example includes a decrease in blood lipase, which helps us burn fats.
JAMA recently published original research showing that OVER HALF of Americans have major risk in this area. It was done with 1000s of subjects using NHANES, the standard lifestyle survey for the US.
By the way, I use a very inexpensive standing desk - called ERGODRIVEN. (No financial association). It's less than $30. But mine have lasted for years.
There are great info graphics available for free and without copyright challenges. But most of them actually UNDERESTIMATE the problem.
