Is today's lifestyle affecting youngsters' health?

Blame it on pollution

Lifestyle of youngsters have changed a lot from what it was 10 or 15 years back, but not to the extent of affecting their health. Cultural, food and social patterns have certainly changed owing to globalisation, IT boom and other technological advances. But more than the complexities of the challenging and changing lifestyles, the severity of pollution, contamination and adulterations at various levels is posing to be a health hazard.
