Brain-dead through our lack of movement

If you sit for too long, you have to supply energy constantly. Otherwise, you become a sea cucumber. The sea cucumber digests its brain. Even as a human being, it is difficult not to become fat and immobile in the long term.

Shaking your head is not enough. Washing hands is also good, but not enough. Even before the Covid crisis, one in four adults died as a result of too little movement. Four out of five children were already at risk of becoming this adult.
The fewer steps we take, the more people die. This increase in death and disease is a lockdown effect. Nothing moves if we don't move. Only getting sick and dying works out better when we move less. The risk of death for the elderly increases significantly due to the double burden: little contact and little movement. This double burden can also cause permanent damage in children. Humans have been designed for a high level of movement since we began walking on two legs. Enjoying movement, movement which strengthens our hearts and grows our brains; being active in the world is still the best remedy. Because where lack of movement begins, brain death begins. Hardly surprising - because what is death, if not a lack of movement.
