That’s because many people are not aware of the risks and can easily get it every day. Most people misunderstand (underestimate) their will power. (Including myself.) “I can manage myself well. If I decide to quit drinking alcohol (or smoking, eating junk food), I would immediately stop it. No problem. Don’t worry. I’m completely fine.” If your siblings or parents said that, what would you tell them? If my coworker said that, I won’t try to persuade them because I don’t have any duty to maintain their health condition. It’s not so easy to fight famous advertisement of delicious low nutrients foods which we eat that makes our body and brain.
