Sitting Can Cause Potential of A Disease

sitting womanSitting all day may greatly increase the risk of diseases that are related to the lifestyle, even if someone added average or routine dose of exercise, said some experts. Benefits of healthy for physical activity that accelerates the heart rate is no longer doubtable; among other things, help prevent heart and blood vessels disease, diabetes, and obesity. But recent scientific findings also showed that prolonged static conditions while people sit may be independently associated with such conditions.

Daily physical exercise for 30 minutes reduce the risk as much as the same percentage, thus showing that a person who had spent most of his spare time sitting or lying on the couch, for example, can eliminate the benefits of using “treadmill” or cycling.

Metabolic syndrome is defined as the presence of three, or more, factors including high blood pressure, abdominal obesity, high cholesterol or insulin resistant conditions. New research is needed to see if there is a causal relationship between static and this condition and if it is true, how do they work, said the researchers.

One of the candidates is “lipoprotein lipase” – an enzyme that produced in fat cells (adipocytes) and tied at the capillary walls – or LPL. This enzyme plays an important role to loosen the fat in the body into a benefit form. Recent research showed that LPL activity, on mice, striking down through stretching activities – as low as level of 1/10 that enables mice to walk.
