Study links long sitting to higher cancer risk
A study indicates that prolonged sitting increases the risk of certain types of cancer, especially breast cancer. Sitting for more than 6 hours daily is associated with a 10% higher risk compared to sitting for less than 3 hours. This relationship remains valid even when accounting for other factors such as weight and physical activity. Research also suggests that reducing sitting periods to 30 minutes, combined with incorporating movement, can decrease the cancer risks linked to sitting. Although the connection does not definitively prove that sitting directly causes cancer, avoiding prolonged sitting and engaging in active measures may help reduce the risks.
