TEXT UTBK With the steady rise of digital technology, sitting has become the most common posture in the workplace. Most desk workers spend an average of 10 hours a day sitting in front of a computer, which leaves very little opportunity for physical activity throughout the day. And unfortunately, as we’ve all been made aware, sitting can actually be extremely detrimental to your health—even more so than smoking, as some would claim. Many of us have health issues that we attribute to bad genes, poor diet, or possibly even the environment. But now that we have a better understanding of the physiological effects of excessive sitting, it’s probably safe to say that our daily behaviors can also play a large role in our health problems. When our body burns less fat and blood circulation is poor, there’s an increased chance of fatty acids blocking the arteries in the heart. This links inactive sitting to elevated cholesterol levels, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease. In fact, a study has shown that men who spend more than 10 hours a week riding a car or over 23 hours a week watching television had 82% and 64% greater risk of suffering from heart disease compared to those who spent significantly less time on both activities. Moreover, when you ‘re sitting the whole time, the brain will be unable to get enough blood and oxygen, which it needs to function optimally. As a result, your brain function still slows down, and you don’t get to optimize your brain power. And when it doesn’t get enough glucose energy, brain cells may get damaged. The side effects mentioned above are understandably worrisome, but it doesn’t mean you have to quit your desk job or stopwatching movies and going on long car rides. Anybody can (and should) reduce the effects of their sedentary lifestyles by simply getting up and moving more. The SitFlow swing, for example, allows desk workers to keep their legs and feet moving even when they have to sit for long periods of time. It encourages "active sitting," which helps you burn more calories during your downtime while effectively counteracting the negative effects of your sedentary lifestyle. Of course, it also helps to stay fit and find ways to increase your daily physical activity. It may take some getting used to, but if it can prevent you from suffering any sitting-related health issues, then it's certainly worth the effort. Let’s try to keep in mind that we should work to live, instead of the other way around. 12. Which of the following idea about the passage is NOT true?
