Small Sedentary Shifts Raise Cancer Risk | Sheffield News
Description
New research reveals that even small reductions in daily vigorous exercise—like cutting just a few minutes of running or stair climbing—can spike your cancer risk by up to 15%. Scientists tracked 60,000 people over eight years and found that replacing movement with sitting (TV, desk work) significantly increases risk, while swapping it for sleep still raises it by 7%. The key? Keep moving—even a 15-minute boost in activity can slash cancer risk by 2%. Vigorous activity means anything that gets your heart pumping: sports, brisk walks, heavy lifting. Don’t let those minutes slip away—your future self will thank you.
