Even with exercise, every extra hour you spend sitting at a computer or in front of the television is linked with a 22 percent increased risk of developing Type-2 diabetes, says a study.
"Our findings could have important implications for public health as they suggest that sedentary behaviour may play a significant role in the development and prevention of Type-2 diabetes, independent of high-intensity physical activity," said the study.
