长期久坐会引起什么问题？

Sitting can be a nice break from a busy day.

But considering many of us spend our entire workday at a desk followed by downtime in  front of a computer or TV, one has to wonder: how exactly is sitting affecting your body?

The answer is pretty shocking.

As soon as you sit down, the electricity activity in your muscles drops significantly and your calorie-burning rate plummets to about 1 calorie per minute.

After only 3 hours of sitting, there is a 50% drop in artery dilation, and as a result, a decrease in blood flow.

Sit for 24 hours straight, and the insulin in your body loses nearly 40% of its ability to uptake glucose, which increases the risk of type 2 diabetes.

长期久坐带来的伤害该如何缓解？

久坐会对人的身体健康产生非常多危害，但又是许多人不可避免的一种情况，那么久坐一族该如何尽可能地减小这些伤害呢？

首先，要注意在坐和站之间适当转化，建议每隔一个小时就站起来走动一下，可以定个闹钟提醒自己，也可以多喝水一方面补充水分、帮助排毒，另一方面也能提醒你去厕所，顺便多走动一下。

此外我们还可以做一些简单的室内运动，比如掂脚，双足并拢着地，用力踮起脚尖，然后放松，重复20-30次，可以帮助下肢血液回流顺畅。另外，我们还可以尝试贴墙站后脚尼钱，一拳远肩胛骨往后收紧下巴，腹肌用力向后说，这样可以锻炼大腿肱四头肌。
