Young People And Healthy Living
"My Body, My Self" is the second study from the Nestlé Social Research Programme, with data collected by MORI. It looks at young people's values and motives about a healthy lifestyle. The study is full of fascinating facts about a generation whose awareness of health risks seems not always to be reflected in their behaviour. There are marked differences between the sexes, especially when it comes to exercise and what motivates young people to take part in physical activities.
