Early Death And Excess Time Spent On This Activity Linked...
Dear Reader,
Did you know that the average American passes almost 5 hours each day in front
of the TV? Researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health conducted a new
analysis of earlier research to come up with the number. Five hours is more time
than we devote to any other daily activity, except for working and sleeping.
As a result of all the time in front of the television, the risk of health problems
that come from of obesity and a sedentary lifestyle (type 2 diabetes, heart disease)
are on the rise as well.
TV has been a part of American life for decades, and for almost as long researchers
have been conducting studies to assess its effects. Today millions of Americans
are so caught up in TV watching that they'd fit the criteria for substance abuse
as defined in the literature.
Wondering where you fall? Ask yourself...
- Do you use TV as a sedative?
- Do you watch indiscriminately... watching anything that's on?
- Do you feel a loss of control while watching TV?
- Are you angry with yourself for watching too much TV?
- Can you stop watching TV?
- Do you feel miserable when you don't watch TV?
The analysis of TV watching included eight fairly large studies that had been conducted over the past 40 years involving the impact of TV on diabetes, vascular disease and heart disease, as well as early death.
The participants in the research were followed for a long time, from 7 to 10 years. Based on the incidence of disease in the U.S., the team estimate that each added two hours of TV time brings 100 deaths for every 100,000 adults in the U.S. each year.
The researchers found that watching over 2 hours of TV a day upped the risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease. Over three hours in front of the tube was linked with a higher risk of early death according to Harvard professor Frank B. Hu, MD, Ph.D. Europeans, for the record, watch about 3 hours of TV each day.
Compare Americans five hours of TV watching, and the researchers saw that TV time was tied to a 20% increase in type 2 diabetes, a 15% higher risk of heart disease, and a 13% raised risk of early death.

Early Death And Excess Time Spent On This Activity Linked... Continued...
Experts have known for some time that too much TV watching was a significant
risk factor for life altering diseases and early death. The most recent analysis
shows us that the relationship is linear (goes up together) and substantial.
Not a surprise that all that time in front of the TV takes away from time you
have to do other things, including being active. The thing is, watching television
is worse for you because your hands are not busy, and thus you're likely to eat
more, or eat absently. Junk foods and sugar-laden beverages are the norm, heavily
advertised to the TV watching public.
If we want to make serious efforts toward cutting TV viewing time, the effort
needs to start with the young. Kids, on average, watch 4 to 5 hours of TV a day,
when no more than two is recommended, and none at all for the little ones under
two years old. Sure the television is an all too convenient babysitter... a safe
pastime for your children while you get things done... until you realize that
the average child will witness 8,000 murders on TV before they are out of elementary
school.
If that's not bad enough, TV watching has also been tied to obesity in children,
as well as Metabolic Syndrome. Conditions like these might just set these kids
up for a lifetime of bad habits and poor health. Maybe even make it more likely
they'll die early as well.
The research appears in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The
organization endorses National TV Turnoff Week, as has the American Psychiatric
Association.
To your good health,
