π Too much sitting hurts the heart.
π§ββοΈ Ajufo et al. (2024) tracked 89,530 people using accelerometers and found that πͺ >10.6 hours/day of sitting sharply increases the risk of β€οΈ heart failure, π heart attacks, π AFib, and β°οΈ cardiovascular death.
π Even active people aren't fully protected.
π Replacing just 30 minutes of sitting with movementβπΊ light or ποΈββοΈ vigorousβreduces risk.
π§ The takeaway? Sit less, move more, live longer.
