Stay healthy while sitting
MANY of us may know that a prolonged sitting posture can be detrimental to our health. Over the years, immeasurable efforts and huge investments have been invested in scientific research to study the risks involved with prolonged sitting.
According to the researchers, the adverse effects of prolonged sitting are caused by disrupted metabolic functions that lead to worsening vascular health.
“Prolonged sitting has been shown to disrupt metabolic function, which results in increased plasma triglyceride levels, decreased levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and decreased insulin sensitivity,” says VU University Medical Center Department of Public and Occupational Health associate professor Dr Van der Ploeg, who also holds an adjunct position at the Sydney School of Public Health of the University of Sydney (Australia).
Lack of movement triggers unhealthy metabolic changes.
Therefore, getting the right chair is important if you and your office employees spend the majority of your working hours sitting at the work place.
One might think all office chairs are the same, but those who value healthy sitting will surely notice the differences among the wide selection available from many chair supply companies.
Seats that can improve your well-being and help maximise productivity often provide comfort and support to the user, as these chairs allow you and your staff members to maintain good posture throughout the day.
“How can we stay healthy while sitting?” many would ask. You will find that the best way is to have movement while sitting or sitting in motion.
One of the suggested seats is an exercise ball, which improves stability and balance and helps strengthen your muscles. However, it is rather unconventional for a formal office.

AluMedic chairs are beautifully designed and incorporated with the exercise ball mechanism, which allows similar movements while sitting.
