    There are not many people who take this alert seriously and just ignore it for their perish. As it is scientifically proved that sitting on a long period of time is dangerous to our health. Thanks for sharing this great alert thru this post. Though it is inevitable to sit on chairs for an office goer, still we can take some precautions as mentioned in the post as well as through the videos.
    This is my first visit to your wonderful website, I am looking forward to reading more such health-related articles on your site.
    Thanks again.
