To begin

with its advantages, social media helps people in many aspects of life.

First

and foremost, Owing to its easy accessibility, individuals can connect with others regardless of their location and they can update themselves not only with local but

also

with international affairs.

Besides

this

platform and gain popularity all over the world. To cite an example, many youngsters become famous because of social media. Apart from

this

, myriad adults started advertising their products with the help of

this

platform.

As a result

, they can earn an ample amount of money and improve their living standards.

In contrast

, there are few disadvantages to these platforms. Many juveniles prolonge in front of the computer or smartphones which cause several health issues to them.

For example

, in a recent article, I have read that more than 60% of disciples allegedly have been suffering from obesity and diabetes because they glued to the electronic devices for a longer time.
