English to Portuguese: Yes, sitting too long can kill you, even if you exercise
Source text - English Take a movement break every 30 minutes, say experts.
No matter how much you exercise, sitting for excessively long periods of time is a risk factor for early death, a new study published Monday in Annals of Internal Medicine found.
There's a direct relationship between time spent sitting and your risk of early mortality of any cause, researchers said, based on a study of nearly 8,000 adults.
As your total sitting time increases, so does your risk of an early death.
The positive news: People who sat for less than 30 minutes at a time had the lowest risk of early death.
"Sit less, move more" is what the American Heart Association encourages all of us to do.
But this simplistic guideline doesn't quite cut it, said Keith Diaz, lead author of the new study and an associate research scientist in the Columbia University Department of Medicine.
"This would be like telling someone to just 'exercise' without telling them how," Diaz wrote in an email.
Translation - Portuguese Faça uma pausa para se movimentar a cada 30 minutos, dizem os especialistas
Um novo estudo publicado segunda-feira, nos Anais de Medicina Interna, descobriu que não importa o quanto você se exercita, ficar sentado por muito tempo é um fator de risco para morte precoce.
Há uma relação direta entre o tempo que ficamos sentados e o risco de morte prematura por qualquer razão, disseram os pesquisadores, baseados em um estudo com aproximadamente 8.000 adultos.
Quanto mais tempo você fica sentado, maiores são as chances de uma morte precoce.
A boa notícia é: pessoas que ficam sentadas por menos de 30 minutos consecutivos possuem o menor risco de morte precoce.
"Sente-se menos, mova-se mais" é o que a Associação Americana do Coração nos incentiva a fazer.
Contudo, essas simples orientações não eliminam totalmente os riscos, diz Keith Diaz, principal autor desse novo estudo e pesquisador do Departamento de Medicina na Universidade de Colúmbia.
"Seria como dizer para alguém "fazer exercícios" mas não dizer como fazê-lo", disse Diaz por email.
