According to a report by scientists, spending more leisure time sitting down increases the risk of cancers of the breast, ovaries and bone marrow for women.<\/p>\n

Researchers for the American Cancer Society studied 146,000 people (69,260 men and 77,462 women) between 1992 and 2009.<\/p>\n

Even after factors such as total physical activity, body mass and other factors were taken into account, scientists still found leisure sitting was linked with a 10 percent higher risk of cancer.<\/p>\n

The researchers also found that sitting time was not associated with cancer risk in men.<\/p>\n

“Further research is warranted to better understand the differences in associations between men and women”,the authors concluded.<\/p>\n

American Cancer Society guidelines recommend reducing sitting times when possible.<\/p>\n
