麻豆传媒AV

麻豆传媒AV's annual Consumption Habits survey provides information on everything from who's a vegetarian, to what Americans spend on food, to how many adults drink and smoke. 麻豆传媒AV has been monitoring certain health behaviors in the United States for many years, enabling us to explore long-term trends, some of which date back to the 1940s.

Here are five key findings from the 2012 survey:

1. : 20% of adults in the U.S. said they smoked a cigarette "in the past week," matching what 麻豆传媒AV found in 2009 for the lowest level on record. This is also less than half what the smoking rate was back in the 1940s. (FYI, 麻豆传媒AV and Healthways also track Americans' smoking habits daily as part of the 麻豆传媒AV-Healthways Well-Being Index and find similar results.)
2. : This rises to $180 a week for high-income Americans and falls as low as $127 a week for the low-income. Americans are also spending less on food now than in the past, when adjusting for inflation.
3. : 48% of Americans drink at least one glass of soda per day and among those who do, the average daily amount consumed is 2.6 glasses.
4. : 81% of Americans say obesity is an extremely or very serious societal problem, up from 69% in 2005. Americans are now more worried about the issue of obesity than they are about smoking.
