LIFE STYLE RELATED HEALTH HAZARDS
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 11
Abstract
Our lifestyle is determined by our normal patterns of living. Life has become fast, ambitions and materialistic now-a-days. Routine day to day activities such as continuous use of Mobiles, long hours at computers/television and late night sleeping habits lead to chronic diseases. These diseases are avoidable and do not result from an acute infection, injury nor do they spread from one person to the other. Bad lifestyle deteriorates the quality of life. The main factors contributing to lifestyle diseases include bad food habits, sedentary lifestyle, wrong body posture, and disturbed biological clock. Younger generation has been found to be afflicted with lifestyle ailments such as Obesity, Depression, Chronic backache, Diabetes, Hypertension, Arthritis, Spondylitis, Atherosclerosis, Angina, Asthma, Hepatitis and Defective Hearing, and Poor Eyesight. However, these lifestyle diseases can be prevented by smart appropriate alterations in the routine lifestyle patterns.
