The British Journal of Sports Medicine in 2010 released an
interesting research about the dangers of sitting which can
increase the risk of death. Now the research is reinforced in
the American Journal of Epidemiology June 2011. Experts
concluded that sitting for long periods or at least 6 hours a
day is enough to make someone die young. “Male 18 percent as for
women 37 percent,” That is the estimated percentage risk of
death written in the Huffington Post. This trend applies when
the activity is performed routinely for 13 years. This study is
assessed to be accurate because it is done on 123 thousand
people over a period of 14 years. The researchers observed the
sitting pattern of a person in a span of 3 hours and 6 hours.
The result showed that people who sit 6 hours or more are most
at risk of dying. Someone who tends to sit long are attacked by
various diseases such as diabetes, depression, and obesity.
