Let me summarise this news. One can refer to the link for one to read in detail

Here, it is stated that our health is affected by the lifestyle we lead, from the eating food to the habits we adopt or phase out, focusing on our quality sleep etc. The new studies by cardiologist found that leading a sedentary lifestyle is the most deadly of them all. 

The research, which was published in JAMA Network Open, surveyed 122,007 patients between early 1991 and late 2014. The doctors recorded fitness levels of the individuals and then followed up to track mortality rates. The numbers were, as one of the authors of the paper put it, “extremely surprising.” In the study, actually, it was found that being inactive can be a worse situation than being a current smoker. Moreover, the research showed that sedentary lifestyle actually can be seen as a disease itself and the solution for this is to just do exercise. For mortality, it was found that too much exercise is not a real concern as compared to getting some only. 

The study sums up that it is easier to get too little exercise than to get too much exercise.
