Watching TV causes fatal disease

American scientists have announced a relationship between prolonged television viewing and the development of venous thrombosis. Those who spend a long time watching TV programs and series run the risk of encountering this serious pathology.

Venous thrombosis (thromboembolism) is a disease in which a large number of blood clots form in the deep veins of the pelvic area, lungs, arms and legs. Previously it was thought that this was a disease of older people. But every year there are more and more cases of thrombosis in young people. Researchers from the University of Vermont observed 15,000 people aged 25 to 65 years. As a result, it was found that those who spend more than 5 hours a day in front of the TV are diagnosed with venous thrombosis twice as often as those who do not have such a habit. This is explained by the fact that while watching TV a person spends a long time in a sitting position.

Snacking at this time further aggravates the problem. Medical experts recommend watching TV while doing light exercises or exercising on a machine. It is also important to get it right create your diet by introducing more fiber-containing foods.
