“Watching a lot of television shortens your lifespan. A big new study out of Australia says for each hour of TV you watch over the age of 25, it takes 22 minutes off your life, at the end of life. Put in another way, one researcher said this puts TV in the same category as smoking and obesity. It can speed up a premature death by five years, if you’re a dedicated TV viewer.”
