Stand up to fat
Periods of inactivity, of four hours or more, can cause a near shut- down of an enzyme that controls fat and cholesterol metabolism, according to Missouri University researchers.
So make sure you keep active, even while you work. It’s easy to get carried away working at your desk so set your alarm for regular intervals and even if you just walk around the office, or stand up and walk on the spot while talking on the phone, this will stop you going into standby mode.
