The deterioration of health care for youth is unfortunate, because taking better care of young people's health is critical to improving the long-term health of the general population. Illnesses and risky behaviours acquired in adolescence can lead to serious health problems later in life. What are the main causes of health deterioration in youth? Please share your valuable opinions...

Tobacco

idea posted by Bindu Narayan Product Development Manager, Care Biomedicals

I believe that tobocco is the main cause of health deterioration in youth. Children and teens are easy targets for the tobacco industry. They're often influenced by TV, movies, advertising, and by what their friends do and say. They don't realize what a struggle it can be to quit. And having cancer, emphysema, blindness, or impotence may not seem like real concerns. Children and teens don't think much about future health outcomes.

YEs, this is true that the today youngsters are suffering a lot and the many reasons for the same as follows.

1. Tobacco leads to mandibular, lingual, throat cancer,

2. Alcohol leads to diseases such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, esophageal, colon cancer, kidney failures, nerve cell damage.

3. Unsafe physical relations leading to STDs, HIVs,

4. Stress leads to cardiac, depression and various psyco-somatic illnesses acting as precursors to may big problems.

 

A healthy life is very to gain if one follows...good diet, regular exercise, yoga, meditation and knowing own limits. Its simple..yet difficult!!! I pray for everyone's well-being......

it causes a disparity between the effort, achievement and capacity triangle, this actually is a psychological downer.

Alcohol and Drugs

idea posted by Dayanand Deshpande Senior Consultant, Ernst & Young

While many teens try alcohol or drugs, using these substances is neither safe nor legal. Some teens experiment with drugs or alcohol only a few times, but experimentation can become substance abuse and lead to serious problems, such as poor school performance, loss of friends, problems at home, and even lasting legal consequences.

I agree only 60% of your statement regarding usage of tobacco is now day by day increasing without any age differences.But at the same time,tobacco is not the only causes for destroying Indian youths.The next drastic thing which is playing in the world of youth is Alcohol & Drugs.Till now noone can able to  measure how much it reached the youth minds.Nowadays alcohol is becoming cooldrinks & drugs becoming one of the food item  for youth.Everyday we can see it in roads, medias & newspaper.Once they touched  then they  are addicted to it.Noone can able to stop them until they self realised.This is the only remedy to stop them i.e., self realisation.The sources are bad relationship in the name of friends, style in movies,advertisements in medias.They should think & realise that they are the backbones of Future INDIA.

Illinois, California, and Massachusetts have all shown cases of the superbug NDM-1. This is a superbug a British medical journal had brought up last month and has entered the U.S. now. Many think the bug must have come from India. This makes sense since all 3 people with the disease had previously been visiting India. The first thought everyone had was that health related tourism for British citizens going to India for low-cost plastic surgery was to blame for NDM-1. But the fact that the American superbug victims weren't health related tourists is leading scientists to believe that the potential of NDM-1 as a global threat is more serious than first thought.

Its true that today's youngsters are facing health problems in a great way. The most possible reasons are 1. Tobacco (Chewing/Smoking)leads to mandible, lingual, throat cancers. 2. Alcohol can cause complications such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, kidney failures, esophageal,colon cancer, brain damage, 3. Unprotected physical relations leads to STDs, HIVs etc. 4. Stress leads to depression, cardiac disorders and many psyco-somatic illnesses. 5. Undisciplined routine disturbs the biological cycle inside the body leading to many undiagnosed disease pre-cursors.
