Stuck behind a desk all day? While hitting the gym can help offset the health risks of a sedentary lifestyle, the thought of spending hours there can seem impossible with a hectic work schedule. But what if you could improve your health without dedicating chunks of your time? According to a well-known doctor with millions of followers on social media, the secret may lie in just one simple task that you can do every 45 minutes.
"Sitting for hours at a time doesn't just affect your energy—it can seriously disrupt blood sugar control. A recent study reveals that interrupting prolonged sitting with short bursts of movement can significantly improve glycemic control," Dr Mark Hyman, a senior physician, and the founder and director of The UltraWellness Center wrote in an Instagram post.
