DESCRIPTION:For the past 8 years\, increasing interest in the 
 epidemiology of sedentary behaviour (SB) has fuell
 ed academic efforts. Initial evidence seemed to su
 ggest that SB was a new risk factor for chronic di
 sease\, independent of physical activity.  Clear p
 hysiological mechanisms\, supported by experimenta
 l evidence\, were proposed to define the metabolic
  risks of prolonged uninterrupted sitting. As epid
 emiological evidence has accumulated\, nuanced cha
 nges in the evidence base have appeared\, such tha
 t sitting risk does not appear to be independent o
 f physical activity. However\, some researchers an
 d policymakers seem resistant to apparent changes 
 in the evidence base.
