While young adults are often characterized to be in the peak of their professional life, the scenario is not exactly the same health-wise.
Most of them work longer hours, commute regularly, get exposed to more pollution on the road, and have irregular eating habits. They are also prone to some of the top risk factors that affect Filipinos’ health, such as alcohol and smoking.
All these can contribute to lower resistance to common illnesses and higher susceptibility to accidents.
