Move a Little

Making a habit of sitting for that long can raise your chance of having things like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. It may change the way your body uses sugar and fat. It can also raise your odds of getting a blood clot in your leg that could go to your lungs and block blood flow. It's called a pulmonary embolism, and it's serious. Drink plenty of water, wear loose clothes, and take a walk about every hour to help avoid it.
