Four bad habits you should try to kick.
You've heard of the fab four.. let me introduce you to the "bad" four. Four common bad habits that when combined can make you look and feel much older than you are. Researchers say smoking, excessive drinking, inactivity and poor diet can age you by 12 years and lead to early death. The British study followed nearly 5000 people for 20 years. Over a thousand of them died due to their unhealthy health habits. Out of the total deaths, 431 died from heart related disease, 318 from cancer, and 331 from other problems. Too much drinking was defined as more than three alcoholic drinks per day for men and more than two a dayl for women; inactivity was considered getting less than two hours of physical activity per week; and a poor diet was qualified as eating fruits and vegetables less than three times a day.

Regarding the report on the small, fast-food toys ordinance, Dr. Steve mentioned child obesity being a problem. A child's health and welfare is the responsibility of the parents. Fast-food toys don't make children fat, POOR PARENTING DOES.
