"Screen Time's Influence on Well-Being and Language Development"

TL;DR Summary
Dr. Abinash Achrekar emphasizes the importance of limiting screen time for both children and adults, as excessive screen time is linked to health risks such as weight gain, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes. Disconnecting from devices can help reduce chronic stress and anxiety, while avoiding screen time before bed can improve sleep quality and overall health. Simple changes, such as using a real alarm clock and keeping devices in another room, can make a significant difference in reducing screen time and its associated health risks.
