Books like Move a little, lose a lot by Levine, James MD.
Dr. James Levine, a leading obesity specialist, argues that America’s modern lifestyle—spending 10–15 hours a day sitting in cars, at desks, or in front of screens—has created a widespread "sitting disease." He explains how Nonexercise Activity Thermogenesis (NEAT)—the calories burned by standing, turning, and bending—can exceed the calories burned in a half‑hour treadmill session. By integrating small, practical movements into everyday activities, readers can boost metabolism, lower blood pressure, and improve mental clarity. The book provides step‑by‑step guidance for incorporating NEAT at work, during commutes, and at home, aiming to help readers reduce fatigue, increase brain activity, and potentially lower the risk of obesity and related health issues.
First publish date: 2009
