Sitting increases cancer risk by 9 per cent per hour

New UK research reveals that each additional hour of prolonged sitting or resting increases cancer risk by 9 per cent. The study emphasises the importance of breaking up sedentary time throughout the day rather than just measuring total inactive hours.
