Sedentary lifestyle. What it means is that if you're not exercising, let's say you sit at the desk all day and you work on the computer while sitting around, and then you go home, you get too tired, you don't go exercise, anything like that, and then you start putting on weight. Well, sedentary lifestyle where you're not exercising, it cause endothelium to break down. So this is what is critical for blood flow because that endothelium, that plastic layer, has to be intact. Because if it starts to have some holes in it, then you're going to start having toxic stuff that goes to the cell, making it sick.
