Sitting down is a silent killer

Thousands of premature deaths could be avoided each year if people reduced the amount of time they spend sitting down.

Some 11.6% of deaths in the UK during 2016 were linked to prolonged sedentary behaviour, according to research from Queen's University Belfast and Ulster University.

Around 69,276 deaths could have been prevented that year if this behaviour - defined as sitting for more than six hours a day - was eliminated, they found.

@David ought to read this and other lazy pen pushers on the forum.

Mind you, David’s got no sofa at the minute so is probably in bed all day, bed sores are another problem but that’s for another subject.

If this was true, he'd be dead by now.

Surely its more to do with the packets of crisps and biscuits they ram down them whilst sat there.
