A recent study has shown that each additional hour a person spends sitting or lying down increases the risk of cancer by 9%. The study's findings suggest that individuals who break up long periods of inactivity with regular activity can reduce this risk. Additionally, replacing one hour of prolonged sitting with light activity, such as walking, decreases the risk of death from cancer by 12%.
