Sitting at home or at work: Which is worse for heart health? AskADoctor DailyHealthTips HealthcareMagic
New research has found that not all forms of sedentariness are equal when it comes to the extent to which they put heart health at risk.
And, the investigation revealed a — perhaps surprising — distinction: The time that a person spends sitting on the couch at home, watching TV, is much more likely to increase their risk of heart problems than the time they spend sitting at work. Diaz and team explain their findings and suggest a possible explanation for these results in a study paper that appeared yesterday in the Journal of the American Heart Association.
However, the same increase in risk did not apply when the hours of sitting took place at work — participants who sat for extended periods in the office did not have a higher cardiovascular risk than those who spent little time sitting at work.
