Standing more doesn't improve risk of stroke, could increase blood clot risk: Study

A University of Sydney-led study found that standing more compared with sitting doesn't improve risk of coronary heart disease, stroke and heart failure. The study added it could increase risk of circulatory issues, such as varicose veins and deep vein thrombosis. The study also found that sitting for 10-plus hours/day can increase both cardiovascular disease & orthostatic incidence risk.
