ELI5: What's the benifit of working at your desk while standing instead of sitting?

A number of people at my company have something at their desks that they can raise up to stand while working.

It's better for your back/body.  Sitting for long periods of time is bad for the human body.  By standing you remove those health problems, including back strain from poorly adjusted chairs/desks.

Edit: Yes... standing all day is equally bad.  The point of standing desks is to stand for a few hours and sit for a few hours.  The key is **balance** people.
