However, the study confirms that watching too much television is not a direct cause of premature deaths, but because of this lack of exercise, people are prone to high blood pressure, obesity and cancer. letters and cardiovascular diseases, are the causes of premature death.
Of the 97 cases of early death, cancer is the leading cause of death with 46 cases, cardiovascular problems, causing 19 deaths, while 31 cases die early because of other illnesses.
