Student Gogiu Mara Alessandra A long and happy life For some time there has been a special emphasis on the notion of a healthy lifestyle. Most of the respondents want to adopt this style, but still lead a disorderly life, consuming only junk-food products, taking a sedentary life and losing nights with socializing in front of the computer.
