American College of Cardiology Nov 15 2024 More time spent sitting, reclining or lying down during the day may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and death, according to a study in JACC, the flagship journal of the American College of Cardiology , and presented at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions 2024.
Insufficient exercise is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease . Over 150 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity per week is recommended by current guidelines to promote heart health. However, study experts say exercise is only a small fraction of overall daily activity, and the current guidelines don't provide specific guidance on sedentary behavior which accounts for a much larger portion of daily activity, despite evidence that it's directly linked with CVD risk.
After an average follow-up of eight years, 3,638 individuals developed incident AF, 1,854 developed incident HF, 1,610 developed indecent MI and 846 died of CV causes, respectively.

"Avoiding more than 10.6 hours per day may be a realistic minimal target for better heart health."
