Career women who must work every day and sitting more than 7 hours a day must be aware. A study from the University of Leicester said, there is a risk for women who sitting up to seven hours a day to get diabetes type 2. Diabetes symptom was seen in women who are less active than those who had a lot of activities. Researchers did not find the same thing on man. The diabetes was only seen in women. The blood tests confirmed these research. There are total of 505 men and women aged 59 years and over become study volunteers. Their sitting habits were observed and measured. They observed the levels of chemicals in the body that has the potential to cause diabetes.


From the observation found, insulin hormone levels in women who have a long sitting habit have the longest resistance. Ability to lower blood sugar is reduced and causes the emergence of early signs of diabetes. Levels of C-reactive protein, leptin, and interleukin-6 adinopectin also seen rising. These body chemicals produced by fatty tissue in the abdomen which can lead to dangerous inflammation. "This study provides new evidence about the longer the time to sit and be free from physical activity, have a damaging effect on insulin resistance and low-level chronic inflammation in women, not men," said the researcher who released American Journal of Preventive Medicine.
