Prolonged sedentary behavior, such as sitting for long periods, is a significant risk factor for obesity. Lack of physical activity leads to a decrease in energy expenditure, which can result in weight gain and increased fat accumulation. Sedentary behavior also disrupts metabolic processes, including insulin sensitivity and fat oxidation. This is particularly problematic when coupled with poor dietary habits. Breaking up long periods of sitting with physical activity, such as walking or standing, can help reduce the adverse effects of sedentary behavior. Integrating regular movement throughout the day is crucial for preventing obesity and maintaining a healthy weight.
