Change Positions, Change Your Life How Standing Desks can Help You Live Longer Scientists have identified sitting habits as a small lifestyle change that can add years to your life. It's no surprise that too much sitting leads to an earlier death, but how much is too much? Sitting for more than 6 hours a day can make you 40% more likely to die within 15 years of someone who only sits for three hours a day. Sitting is the leading factor that contributes to obesity. Sitting shuts off electric activity in the legs, reduces calorie burning to one calorie per minute, and reduces insulin effectiveness more than 20%, which increases the risk of diabetes. Ultimately, people with sedentary jobs are twice as likely to die from cardiovascular disease as those with active jobs. The good news is there is no need to change career paths. Simply stand up!
