Sedentary and diabetes are related, but not causal. That is to say: sedentary will increase the risk of diabetes, but sedentary will not lead to diabetes. I hope you can understand, don't worry too much, and often do some exercise.
According to the latest report of the British Diabetes website, a new British study published in the international authoritative magazine Diabetes warns that people who sit for a long time are twice as likely to suffer from diabetes, heart disease or premature death as those who exercise regularly.
Scientists from Leicester University and Loughborough University completed the new study. They said that a sedentary lifestyle has brought many key health problems to people. This new study analyzed the results of 18 related studies, involving nearly 800,000 participants. The results show that sedentary lifestyle will increase the risk of type 2 diabetes by 1 12% and cardiovascular disease by 147%. The overall mortality rate has increased by 49%. The study also found that sedentary people, even if they increase exercise at other times of the day, these risks are still quite high.
Dr Emma wilmot, a researcher at the Diabetes Research Center of Leicester University, said that the average sedentary time of adults is 50%-70% of a day, so this new research result has far-reaching significance. Sedentary is positively correlated with diabetes. This is very important, because the high-risk groups of diabetes (obese people and family diabetics, etc.). ) They can reduce their risk of diabetes by limiting sedentary time.
Melanie Davis, a professor of diabetes medicine at Leicester University, said that new research results show that laziness is very dangerous to long-term health, and the risk of sedentary far exceeds other lifestyle factors such as diet and activities.
Dr Matthew Hobbs, head of the British Diabetes Association, said that this new research result is very interesting, but the public should not give up the idea of active exercise because of this research result. Obviously, people who like to sit for a long time or lie down will definitely be healthier if they stand and walk more.
