A recent study led by a researcher at Louisiana State University's Pennington Biomedical Research Center estimates that two years may be added to the life expectancy of those who reduce sitting to less than three hour hours a day. Other research shows that setting for too long can cause physiological changes in metabolism.
Guess I've added years to my life by standing all these years. Working at the U.S. Shoe for years standing at my job covering heels. Then for the past 19 years designing flowers. I've tried setting and designing and I just can't seen to get the swing of it. When it's Prom time it's easy to set on the stool and design those little wrist corsages. Everything I need is on the towel in front of me. Some days it's so busy we never get to set down unless we take time to eat lunch or go to the ladies room. Sit less, live longer.....sounds like I might live to be 100!!
