Standing Too Long Can Be Bad for You!

Imagine you have a desk that lets you stand up while working, but a new study says standing for a long time can be bad for you.

If you stand for more than two hours a day, you might get swollen veins or even blood clots in your legs.

It also turns out that standing doesn't make your heart healthier, like some people thought.

The best thing is to move around a lot and get exercise, even if you have a standing desk!
