Office Health: Standing up is the new sitting down

Why sitting down for long periods at the Office can seriously damage your health and increase your chances of diabetes (and also a simple solution!)

I remember seeing a TV documentary where an overweight DJ presented her show standing up and in that week she lost a few pounds.

 

It certainly may be worthwhile, but I am unsure if standing up while working at your PC is a good idea as RSI then comes into its own.

 

Any thoughts or opinions?
