5 things that are almost as bad as smoking


1)SITTING
Sitting all day increases risk for a raft of different cancers including lung and colon, a 2014 study shows.




2)POLLUTION
One of out every six premature deaths in the world in 2015 - about nine million - was caused by pollution-related diseases. This is more than the deaths caused by smoking, hunger or natural disasters.

3)LONELINESS
Labelled a worldwide epidemic, loneliness is the equivalent of smoking 15 cigarettes a day, says research

4)POOR DIET
A diet of sugary, processed foods rich in saturated fats is responsible for death rates higher than those of alcohol, drugs, unprotected sex, and tobacco combined

5)SLEEP LOSS

Sleep deprivation is a public health problem

World Health Organisation(WHO) says it raises the risk of stroke and heart attack to similar degrees as regular cigarette use.
