 Well, I'm going to live forever. I'm saved. The study used data from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey participants over a 13-year period. And according to that study, people who sat for more than eight hours a day had a 46% higher risk of death from all causes and a 79% higher risk of death from cardiovascular disease. However, sedentary coffee drinkers had a 24% reduced risk of mortality compared with those who sat for more than six hours and didn't drink coffee.
