The Daily Infographic<\/a> recently posted a Medical Billing and Coding visualisation of the ways in which sitting – at one’s desk<\/a> or at home – can be detrimental to one’s health.<\/p>\n

The Infographic, entitled “Sitting Down Is Killing You,” is slightly alarmist and is loaded with the message that sitting causes, rather than is correlated with, poor health.
