The difference between life and death after a heart attack may be as easy as getting up and moving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to recent studies, people who sit for more than 14 hours each day are twice as likely to have another cardiac episode or die within a year. However, simply substituting 30 minutes of sitting with any sort of activity can reduce the risk in half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The study discovered that people who replaced 30 minutes of sedentary time with mild activity, such as cleaning or walking, reduced their risk of adverse events or mortality by half. Sedentary behavior was replaced with more vigorous activity, such as brisk walking or gardening, which lowered the risk by 61%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/manhattancardiology.com\/es\/team\/robert-segal-md\/\">Dr. Robert Segal<\/a>, founder of Manhattan Cardiology, who was not involved in the study, suggested a straightforward approach to understanding the risk: Think of your blood vessels like a garden hose. &#8220;If water flows consistently (you&#8217;re moving), pressure stays balanced and flexible,&#8221; Segal told The Epoch Times. &#8220;But if you leave it kinked (you&#8217;re sitting), pressure builds up, debris accumulates, and it weakens over time.&#8221; <a
