Sit Less, Move More, Live Longer, Says Study
As a new year begins, many of us have been making plans for the months ahead — things we want to do, places we want to go, and parts of our lives we want to change.

And one study from 2022 has some simple advice to share that we might be able to use in 2023: sit less, move more.

Okay, so it's not a new message, but the researchers found that the results of their large study provide more evidence that long periods of sitting are bad for our health.

This is true across the world, but especially in lower-income countries, they said.

The researchers followed more than 105,000 adults — aged between 35 and 70 — for an average of around 11 years.

They looked at how much time the participants — who were from 21 different countries — spent sitting down each day.

And they also wanted to know about their health as the years passed. In total, there were more than 6,200 deaths and almost 5,700 cases of serious heart problems during the study.

Using this information, the researchers found that people who said they sat for eight or more hours per day were at a much higher risk of early death or serious heart disease.

These people were increasing their risk by as much as 20%, according to the researchers, but they added that doing exercise could help reduce these risks.

Scott Lear, who was one of the study's authors, said: "It's a global problem that has a remarkably simple fix. Scheduling time to get out of that chair is a great start."

孔融让梨

孔融小时候聪明好学，才思敏捷，巧言妙答，大家都夸他是奇童。4岁时，他已能背诵许多诗赋，并且懂得礼节，父母亲非常喜爱他。
一日，父亲买了一些梨子，特地拣了一个最大的梨子给孔融，孔融摇摇头，却另拣了一个最小的梨子说：“我年纪最小，应该吃小的梨，你那个梨就给哥哥吧。”父亲听后十分惊喜,又问:“那弟弟也比你小啊?"孔融说"弟弟比我小,我也应该让给他.”孔融让梨的故事，很快传遍了曲阜，并且一直流传下来，成了许多父母教育子女的好例子。

Dear Mr, Mrs, Miss, Ms...?

La influencia del inglés llega a muchos países, y España, no iba a ser menos. Muchas palabras inglesas son usadas en otros idiomas, son los conocidos anglicismos. En este episodio comento algunos de ellos que usamos en el español del día a día.  Algunos necesarios, y otros que no lo son tanto.

Después de escuchar no te olvidades dejar una valoración del podcast y de decirme si te ha gustado y qué piensas tú de los anglicismos, ¿se usan en tu país?
