 You should never go on the computer too much while eating junk food, but instead eat healthy foods like vegetables and fruits while going outside and playing for at least sixty minutes!

__ Why should people follow Digital Health and Wellness? __

 You should follow the rules of digital health and wellness because when you follow the rules you can live a healthy and happy life. Staying on the computer for too long is not good for your posture, (back, shoulders, neck) your eyes, and your weight. Usually when you stay on the computer for a very long time you still need to eat and drink, but instead of eating your normal dietary foods like dairy, meats, and carbohydrates you instead eat junk food like chips, soda, and other oily foods. You can still go on your computers or TV, but try to keep it little and do other things like keeping a balanced diet and going outside.  Kids AND adults need at least 60 minutes of exercise each day to keep your heart and other organs healthy. Even adults need to work out! Lots of adults don’t get enough exercise each day so they don’t keep a healthy life. Remember to keep a healthy balanced life to keep a good future ahead!!!!!!!!!

 __How should you sit while using a computer?__

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">The other source I found was a picture. It represents over usage of a computer. The Picture is broken down in to three parts. The first part shows a person using a computer properly, what is, sitting straight.. The second part shows the person starting to become tired and ill. This represents using the computer for too long. The final part shows the person in a state of deep sleep.
