I think that today's young generation is not as healthy as they were 50 years ago. First of all, the food has changed. Teens do not eat a lot of healthy foods anymore, which might cause various deiseases. Second, they are not as physically strong as they were before. During those times people spent more time in the open air, doing much of physical labor work. Many young people nowadays have bad habits like smoking or taking drugs.

At the same time there are people who say that now young people go to gyms or go on hiking trips to forests. They know about health much more than teens before and that is why they take good care of it.
