If for over 20 years you are overly fond of games, distracting from a monitor or TV just to eat and relieve yourself, then as a result you will get a very pale skin color, a deformed shape of the head and body, as well as a whole bunch of health problems. This conclusion was made by British researchers, who were engaged in the problem of excessive pastime at the games.
For a vivid demonstration, the research team created a model of a man named Michael, which reflected all the negative factors detrimental effect of excessive enthusiasm for video games due to a long stay in a room with a fixed seat in the chair behind the monitor.
So, Michael, a conditional avid gamer with 20 years of experience, has bloodshot eyes and dark circles under his eyes, pale skin due to a lack of vitamins D and B-12, an altered skull shape due to the constant wearing of headphones, and on his fingers nails exfoliate due to onycholysis caused by constant tapping on the keyboard. The hands also have ulcers formed as a result of endless pressing of the controller buttons.
However, this is not all. An avid gamer has improper posture, an excessively elongated neck, rounded shoulders and a hump, and also suffers from obesity and eczema.
Based on the data, researchers urge gamers to take frequent breaks between game sessions and perform physical exercises. They also recommend that you follow a proper diet, keep your room evenly lit, sit with your back straight and avoid sodas.
