The American Institute for Cancer Research recently announced that 43,000 colon cancer cases and 49,000 breast cancer cases could be prevented if people would simply avoid sitting the majority of the day. Once again, movement and exercise prove to be outstanding in the prevention of disease. When a person sits all day, their circulation becomes sluggish. This could lead to poor oxygen & nutrient delivery throughout the body, as well as a stagnant detoxification system - the body needs to get rid of toxins. If you have a job that forces you to sit a lot, try to get up every 30 minutes or so and move around. Do some walking, stretching, jumping jacks, push-ups or anything else that gets you moving!
