Abstract:
Poverty affects individual’s physical health as well as his or her mental health. Poor parents suffer a great deal of social economic stress, which greatly impacts their relationship with their children, especially the adolescents. Troubled teenagers experience chronic stress and sometimes deep distress that leads to psychological issues and in worst cases to suicide. As poverty takes its toll on the human health, it also affects environment in general: Poor areas are well known by the wide spread of infectious communicable diseases, such as typhoid fever and tuberculosis. Underprivileged people are also exposed to non-communicable diseases including Premature Births and Cancer. It also imposes obesity in poor regions since the poor have limited or no access to physical activities which improves their health. Families with lower wages are often victims of obesity, due to several reasons, including the cheap prices of junk food and the wrong orientation in the media about healthy diets.
Poverty is arguably the most universal, difficult, and harmful risk factor for population health. Its effects mount up over the life course, and are transmitted across generations. Poverty limits opportunities leaving individuals liable to low control, depressive symptoms, and a strange appearance. Poverty is such a dominant force that it can lead an individual into a long cycle of severe health issues. Cracking this cycle is a key task that can only be achieved with steps such as educating the public about the effects of poverty all across the globe. Poverty can directly affect individuals and their families in many ways such as, mental health, infectious diseases, and obesity that are spreading at such a quick rate particularly among those settling in inadequate living conditions and poor sanitary.
Without a doubt,
