The doctors expressed concern that patients were eating too much and were generally overweight.The doctors said this was particularly worrying as they were seeing more and more young people with weight problems.But it was not just their patients eating too much that concerned doctors,but the quality of the food as well. The doctors said that many of their patients led busy lives and did not have time to cook traditional meals.Because of this many of them were turning to unhealthy fast foods.Sales of this type of food have been increasing steadily over the last decade,although there were signs that the rate of growth is declining.The doctors felt that there was a clear link between over-consumption of fast food and health problems among their patients. But the report was not all bad news.The doctors interviewed also reported an increased awareness of the importance of healthy eating among their patients.Many reported an increase in the number of patients they see who had switched to a healthy organic diet.

buildings,now believes that the high-rises may well make those people who have been housed in them suffer a great deal.Evidence has been collected by social workers,which suggests that people do suffer.They complain about severe loneliness and deep depression living within these great towers.People also talk about lack of communication with others, no easy access to a playground for children,no chances for adults to get familiarized with each other.Many people say that they have lived next door to each other for years in the same building,but they never know who their neighbors are.Some experts say that a large number of people living in the high-rises suffer from mental disorder and have even developed criminal tendencies.As a result of these new discoveries,plans for new high-rise blocks are being reconsidered.We are now building up many high-rises in big cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.Perhaps we should also reconsider the idea too.
