Are you getting your exercise in? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young medical minute. In today’s world, most jobs are sedentary, meaning more people spend time sitting than moving. Well, Norwegian University of Science and Technology studied the health impacts of a sedentary lifestyle. In the past, there had been numerous studies that linked inactivity to increased mortality. However, this study was different. Researchers wanted to know what happens when physical activity and behavior changes over time. In other words, what happens someone who was once active stops. They found that being inactive for 20 years can make someone twice as likely to die, especially of cardiovascular disease, earlier than someone who is active. So, what are you waiting for?
