We are not crazy about the television at the Daily Apple.
We'd like to agree with the recent report comparing the difference between a TV and a computer: when you use one you turn your brain on, with the other you turn it off.
Your brain may not be the only thing the TV turns off.
It seems that men who watch a lot of TV are more sedentary (久坐不动), eat more food and are generally much fatter.
Similar results have been found for women.
Experts think that watching TV means that not only are you sedentary, but you have to watch food advertisements inducing (引诱) you to eat more.
The food that you are being introduced to eat may not be good enough for your health.
If you are a couch potato, here are some suggestions:
●Tape a piece of paper to the back of your remote control (摇控器) or TV Guide, and every time you watch a show, note how long you sit there and what you eat.
●Review the record after a week. This can be a shock.
●Don't have a TV in your bedroom; having a TV in the bedroom greatly increases viewing time and if you tend to eat while viewing, the results are obvious.
●Think of a healthy way instead of watching TV that you like. This can be as simple as walking the dog or walking to visit a neighborhood regularly.
After a few months you are likely to be surprised about how much more time you seem to have and how much better you feel.
