A number of researchers from the University Conpenhagen doing research on the relationship between playing video games and obesity it causes. What were the results? According to a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, playing video games like Electronic Arts series, FIFA 11 can make the players fat. One researcher said that the two causes of obesity is video games and lack of sleep.
In this study, researchers focused on a 22-year-old Danish adolescents who have a healthy body condition and normal weight. This teenager has completed 2 sessions of FIFA 11 on Xbox 360, each of which lasted 1 hour in a sitting position. He then continued its activities with lunch. Here, researchers found that each session of video games is associated with increased number of food intake, energy expenditure, appetite sensations and others.
Beyond whether or not such research because it focuses only on one youth only, but will keep in mind is that the static activity for hours is not good for health.

Music-based games like Rock Band and Guitar Hero, as well as Konami's dancing game, Dance Dance Revolution (DDR) is also fun to play. States such as Hawaii and West Virginia actually use DDR as a physical education program to fight obesity in schools. They even held a contest with prizes DDR scholarships.
While last summer, the company famous Japanese video game Nintendo doing promos healthy living by challenging parents and children to remain active through the Wii game.
So smart to choose video games for health to stay awake and imbangilah with activities outside the 'real'.
