higher risk of depression symptoms than the women who sat less than four hours per day. Greater inactivity had a greater impact on mood. Women


who had no physical activity had a 99% higher risk of develop- ing symptoms of depression than women who exercised 30 minutes per day. Women who sat multiple hours and had no exercise were three times more likely to develop depressive symptoms than women who sat less and exercised more. The authors of the study also found that exercise could reduce the risk of future depression. “Sitting is the new smoking,” says Anup Kanodia, MD at the


Center for Personalized Health Care at Ohio State University. An Australian study compared the risk from smoking to the risk from sitting. The researchers found that every hour of TV people watched while sitting cuts 22 minutes from their life span while it is estimated that smokers cut their life span by 11 minutes per cigarette. Neville Own, Ph.D., a researcher from Australia, states, “Sitting time is emerging as a strong candidate for being a cancer risk factor in its own right.” He continues, “Emerging evidence suggests that the longer you sit the higher your risk. It also seems that exercising won’t compensate for too much sitting.” So what do you do to reduce the risks from sitting? Simply


standing whenever you can helps reduce sitting and increase moving. Stuart McGill, Ph.D. from the University of Waterloo, says, “Even breaks as short as one minute can improve your health.” He suggests interrupting the sedentary time as frequent- ly as possible with posture changes. Other suggestions from the Mayo Clinic include standing


and stretching as often as possible, standing while talking on the phone or eating lunch, and walking with colleagues to discuss issues instead of sitting in a conference room. A new trend is the standing desk where your computer screen and keyboard can be adjusted to allow you to work standing. Some companies have installed tread mills with computer stations where employees can walk at a moderate place and work at the same time. One researcher suggested that people stand and walk for a short dis- tance every 20 minutes to increase muscle activity and trigger important processes that assist the body in the breakdown of fats and sugars. Improve your health and lengthen your life by stand- ing and/or walking as often as possible.
