WHY WE SHOULD ALL USE A HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE DESK?

		Preventing & reducing MUSCLE PROBLEMS If you stay seated all day, your leg muscles and gluteus muscles will become inactive, thus reducing your ability to sit up straight. Alternating between sitting and standing positions is critical for us to keep our bodies healthy and prevent illness
		Preventing & reducing POOR CIRCULATION Remaining seated for too long may result in swollen ankles and varicose veins, caused by fluids sinking down into the legs. Regular movement adjusts the amount of load being put on the body, increases specific body part rest intervals, and thus reduces the adverse effect of risk factors.
		Increased BRAIN ACTIVITY If you stay fixed in one position, insufficient fresh, oxygen-rich blood will be pumped around the body, causing brain function to slow down. Employees who alternate between a sitting and standing positions will have more energy, experience reduced fatigue levels, and reduce their risk of injury caused by working in one body position too long.
		Preventing & reducing HEART RISKS Since muscles are less active while a person is seated, they burn less fat. Together with a higher blood pressure and elevated cholesterol levels, this increases the risk of heart disease.
		Preventing & reducing BACK PROBLEMS Staying seated for long periods causes weight pressure to be unevenly distributed over the spine, leading to spinal problems in the lower back. Standing just 15 min per hour provides great health benefits.
