Australian researchers said standing for 5 hours was vital for ‘optimal’ health
Stand up for yourself — at least a lot more than you probably are.
For an Australian study suggests standing for at least five hours a day is vital for ‘optimal’ health.
Researchers believe they have discovered exactly how long we should spend sitting, sleeping, standing and exercising every day to have, and keep, a healthy heart.
Experts have warned for years that being stationary for too much of the day raises the risk of numerous health problems including weight gain, type 2 diabetes, cancer and even an early grave.
Now a team of researchers say we should aim to sit for just six hours a day, three hours less than the UK average.
