Only 5% of Russian gamers drink energy drinks every day, and 12% drink them once or twice a week. Thus, the popular stereotype that gamers are generally fans of tonic drinks turned out to be false. socialbites.ca learned about this from a joint study conducted by the Citylink company and the gaming accessories brand GMNG.
At the same time, it turned out that instead of regularly drinking energy drinks while playing, Russian players prefer to eat weak alcohol such as beer and cider, as well as fast food (crackers, chips and processed foods). Almost half (48%) of gamers smoke, including e-cigarettes and e-cigarettes.
More than half (59%) of survey respondents prefer to game on weekends, and 54% play up to seven hours a week. For half of them, this time is quite enough, a quarter of them want to play more often, the other quarter want to play less or not at all. Only 6% of gamers spend less than an hour per day sitting, 30% spend 4 to 6 hours, 26% spend 6 to 8 hours, and 9% spend more than 10 hours per day.
Only 38% of respondents pay attention to a balanced menu, 35% occasionally think about their diet, and 27% do not care about these difficulties at all. 17% of the participants do sports regularly, while 38% do not do any sports at all. The most popular type of physical activity was the gym (32% of respondents).
45% see a doctor once a year or more, but just under half (42%) only see a doctor when absolutely necessary. At the same time, 41% of respondents reported a deterioration in their health in the past year. More than half (54%) of respondents report having conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, vision problems, back pain, and frequent fainting.
Based on the survey results, we can conclude that computer games do not necessarily interfere with a healthy lifestyle. Many players find time for sports and regular visits to doctors, do not smoke or abuse strong alcohol.
More than 1,100 people over the age of 18 from different cities of Russia participated in the survey.
