Stand Up

We are sitting more than ever before - and our sedentary lives
are having a big impact on our long term health. In this episode,
Michael stands up to the allure of the couch and reveals the
science behind how just standing up - without even doing any
exercise - can burn more calories and lower blood sugar levels.
With Dr John Buckley, Michael explores how the experience of
astronauts in space proves how important the force of gravity is
on our bodies - and how standing up can help keep our bones and
muscles strong.
