HONG KONG, April 11 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Herbalife, a global nutrition company (NYSE: HLF), today released the findings from the new Nutrition At Work Survey, which revealed that the majority of Asia-Pacific's workforce lead largely sedentary lifestyles, putting them at risk of obesity.

According to the survey findings, nine out of 10 workers (85 percent) spend at least six hours a day sitting at their desk, with five out of 10 eating lunch at their work desk two to five times per week. Indonesia had the highest number of workers eating at their desks, with 71 percent eating lunch at their desk two to five times per week.
