We all want sitting and laying down in bed. But do you know that is healthier to stand than to sit or lay down.
Standing appears to be better for your health than sitting.
Marc Hamilton and a team at University of Missouri Columbia found the recommended 30 minutes of exercise per day was not enough to counteract health problems caused by sitting and sleeping the other 23.5 hours. Their research suggests that after several hours sitting, our bodies shut down burning fat and cholesterol. Standing switches those metabolic functions back on, and calorie burning is effectively doubled.
