Sitting all day in front of the TV is fun, especially while watching a favorite movie. Although good for relieving stress, this practice should not become a habit for a long time because it can damage the kidneys if it is not balanced with exercise.

Researchers in the UK recently proved that the length of time spent sitting is closely linked to its risk of chronic kidney damage. The more often sit and rarely move, the higher the risk of developing kidney disease.

In this study, Thomas Yates of the University of Leicester involves no less than 5650 adults in the UK. The participants were divided into 3 groups based on the length of the day sitting, the high risk (8-24 hours), medium (3.2 to 7.8 hours) and low (0-3 hours).

When compared with the risk of kidney damage, Yates revealed that the group with the risk of being at risk of kidney damage 30 percent more than high-risk groups. They are moderate risk group, the risk of kidney damage 20 percent lower than the high-risk group.

These data indicate that the longer the time spent for someone to sit, the greater the risk of kidney damage encountered. However, in this study, the effect is more observed in female participants than male participants.
