#Posturemyth

Sitting upright all day might feel virtuous, but a growing body of research suggests that chasing a faultless posture is less about alignment and more about dynamic movement. In a recent BBC feature, Dr Xand van Tulleken—a clinician who presents health stories on television—argues that long hours in one rigid position can do more harm than good. He frames back health around three practical rules that are easy to apply at home, at school, and in the workplace. For Thai readers juggling office desks, motorcycle commutes, and family duties, the news carries important implications: you don’t need to be a gym rat to protect your spine, but you do need to move more, strengthen supporting muscles, and listen to your body.
