PSA SCRIPT

I am Ibitoroko George-Opuda, a scientist, with an interest in Physical Health promotion. I want to talk to you about physical activity; there is growing evidence that sitting for long hours puts you at risk of cancer, diabetes and abdominal obesity. All of that can change, if you are willing to sit and stand to work, take the stairs instead of the elevator, encourage friends for a little exercise during break periods.

For more information, visit www.CDC. gov/physicalactivity.

This message was brought to you with the support and collaboration with The National Coalition for Promoting Physical Activity.
