--Chandni Jhunjhunwala Hallmark arrived in my hometown of Calcutta, India, around the time I turned 14. On Valentine's Day, I waited in line with hordes of other teenagers just for a chance to get into the store. I remember wishing two things. One: That I wasn't the only person there with her mother.

online media that bombard—and often confuse—us with contradictory information. One research report negates what another confirmed to be proven true, leaving us in quite a quandary as we seek to form and follow healthy habits.
