Physical inactivity and non-communicable disease burden in low-income, middle-income and high-income countries

How does occupational physical activity influence health? An umbrella review of 23 health outcomes across 158 observational studies.
CONCLUSIONS: We found favourable associations for most health-related outcomes with high OPA levels, but we also found some evidence for unfavourable associations due to high OPA levels. At this point, there is a need for better quality evidence to provide a unequivocal statement on the health effects of OPA.

Chan School of Public Health. More than 40% of U.S. adults are obese. After years of declines, heart disease death rates are on the rise again. So are rates of obesity-linked canc...
