More and more people are suffering from health problems caused by a modern life style which cannot be treated with modern medicines. Some people think that a return to traditional medicine should be encouraged. To what extent do you agree?

Modern
life
 is connected with tech-enabled services that provide
people
 with a carefree existence. Comfortable
life
 determines lifestyle changes, which occur from year to year and are strongly determined by technological progress. I believe
this
 fact causes more and more
change
 in human health, that sometimes could be unpredictable and damaging.
First
 of all, the great amount of customer service makes
people
 become lazier because most of the facilities are now available at the click of a button. The lack of activity, unhealthy diet, and sleeplessness which are so typical for modern
life
 lead to
such
 severe diseases as heart attack, ischemic stroke, diabetes mellitus, obesity etc. In my opinion, all these problems are chronic, and
as a result
, it is difficult to cure them even in modern medicine. The main paradigm of treating these patients is to
change
 their lifestyle,
however
, most of the
people
 followed “the path of least resistance” by using traditional medicine. Clearly that it would be easier to blame the method than to
change
 yourself. It’s so tempting to listen to a person who promises to
change
 your
life
 without any self-working efforts.
On the other hand
, we cannot imagine our
life
 without using smartphones and gadgets which open access to unlimited information resources. It could be helpful for students in preparing their academic papers, for customers to choose quality products, and for every
people
 to expand their horizons. Every person can find out a lot of information on how to improve their health, let alone fitness and a healthy lifestyle are very popular nowadays. Despite
this
 fact, the flow of information must be carefully controlled to avoid disinformation. Gullible
people
 naively believe everything could be instilled by “healers”, “fortune tellers”, and “traditional doctors” who not only won’t help but even could cause harm with their actions. In conclusion, despite all these advantages, I strongly believe, that preservation and prevention of health are the
people
’s responsibility and
also
 should be encouraged by the healthcare system in order to avoid severe chronic diseases and prevent
people
 from choosing the wrong treatment management.
