Television is an inevitable source of entertainment in many American households. A recent study by the A.C. Nielsen Co. reveals that an
average American watches up to 4 hours of TV every day Cheap Anaheim Ducks Jersey , which means that he spends about 2 months uninterrupted in a year for watching TV. Taking this into account, a man living
a 65 year lifespan probably spends 9 years continuously in watching Television.
These are huge figures which show how much television is influencing our day to
day life. The electronic gadget has integrated itself into our lifestyle and it
is changing the way we think, how we behave and the way we
dress.


While spending enormous amount of time in front of the television Cheap Arizona Coyotes Jersey , we should be thoughtful about how it affects our health and daily routine. Just like how we are aware of the numerous
benefits of television, so should we be mindful of the negative aspects related
to TV viewing. Watching TV continuously for long hours can prove to be
disastrous as it leads to many health problems like the
following.


•Watching television from a very close distance can harm your eyes. A research by the Canadian Association of Optometrists (CAO) states
that watching TV continuously for long hours from a close distance can cause
strain for your eyes and mental fatigue. It will lead to poor and blurred
vision. So while you sit for watching TV you should ensure two things. The first
thing is that the room should have proper lighting. A room that is dimly lit or
that is too bright is bad for your eyes. You must not watch television wearing
sunglasses. The second thing is that you should watch TV from a safe distance.
The distance between you and the TV should be about five times your TV screen’s
width.

•If you are a couch potato, then there are more chances for you to become obese as sitting for hours on end in front of the television disturbs
your body metabolism. A study by the Stanford University of Medicine shows that
while watching television Cheap Boston Bruins Jersey , people tend to eat more and develop unhealthy food eating habits on seeing the various advertisements. Statistics
reveal that about 66% of the Americans regularly view TV while having their
dinner. So there is no wonder why half the population is obese! It is very
customary to relish on the junk foods like burgers and pizzas while watching
television. So be careful with your diet the next time you choose to eat while
watching television.

•The children are becoming more addicted to the television. On an average, a child watches TV for about 1680 minutes per week
according to A.C. Nielsen Co. The children try to imitate the characters they
see on television and presume them to be real. There is a rise in the aggressive
behavior among children as they are being exposed to acts of violence in
television. Children who watch television for long hours have a poor mental and
intellectual development. TV viewing dulls the children’s brains and leads to
deterioration of their mental capabilities. So you need to have a control on
your kid’s TV viewing habits. You can limit the time the children spend on
watching television and it is better to watch TV along with your children. I got
the parental control feature on my FiOS TV which enables me to have control over
the timings and the content my kids watch.

•The people who remain glued to the television become more isolated and lose interaction with the family
members and friends. Watching television continuously will deprive you of your
sleep as the rays emitted from the TV screen are powerful.


We shouldn’t allow the television to take control of our lives and make us addicted
to it. You can plan and fix schedules for watching television for everyone in
your home. TV viewing can turn to be a delightful experience if you develop
healthy TV viewing habits.
