Part 3
1)
Do you think people have become more health-conscious in recent years?
In my opinion, many people are more concerned about living a healthy lifestyle than, say, ten years
ago and understand how to stay fit and healthy. Lots of adults of all ages go to the gym, cycle to
work, jog in their spare time or have taken up a sport. The shops seem to offer more healthy eating
options every week so the demand is obviously there.
On the other hand, I heard on the news that over 70% of the population of my country
is overweight so most people aren’t taking good care of their health. There are lots of programmes
on TV about health problems related to obesity and how to change your life and get healthier, so I
have to conclude that people are more conscious of health issues these days but that many choose
to do nothing to improve them.
2)
Why do some people choose to live unhealthy lives?
their health of eating and drinking too much and not taking enough exercise. In many cases, it’s
just laziness.
However, I do believe that there are some people who really do want to lose weight and get fit but
find it very difficult to change their dietary habits or find the motivation to exercise. I have a work
colleague who was so overweight and unfit that he couldn’t play football with his children. He was
so upset by this that he went on a diet and started to take regular exercise. He lost over 40kg and is
football, which they really love.
Sometimes it takes a situation like this or a health scare for someone to make
better health decisions.
