Good morning,
For school I have to present 5 articles chosen about Health. I've finished my file but I'm not sure about the grammar of my conclusion, could you have a look on?
Thank you for your help.
Conclusion
In conclusion thanks to this presentation we can affirm that to keep a good health it's better:
as regards preterm babies to avoid planned caesarian sections, IVF pregnancies and smoking.
We also see that people who drink alcohol and smoke have less risks of mouth and throat cancer if they drink 4 cups of coffee.
Moreover it's better not to drink energy drinks which are bad for heart attacks caused by the component called Taurine
If you jog, it's adviced jogging outside cities and pollution.
And finally if you feel difficulties to fall asleep, it's maybe because your room is not dark enough or hot enough and to do 20 minutes a day of exercises can allow have a good night.
Thank you for your attention.

Hello, I think that your conclusion is off the subject; there is no coherence there.

Hello,
I thought writing a summary with the essential points of my articles could be good. . . but regarding the grammar are there any errors?
Thank you for your opinion.

Bonjour...
In conclusion thanks to this presentation we can affirm that to keep a good health (en anglais pas d'article est utilisé avant un substantif abstrait, par exemple: "health" pas "a health") it's better:
as regards preterm babies to avoid planned caesarian sections, IVF pregnancies and smoking.(Cela prête à confusion. Il vaut mieux dire: "pour réduire le risque de ... les femmes enceintes devraient ....")
We also see that people who drink alcohol and smoke have less risks of mouth and throat cancer if they drink 4 cups of coffee.(combien de fois?) Moreover it's better not to drink energy drinks which are bad for (reformuler) heart attacks caused by the component called Taurine
If you jog, it's adviced
jogging (il faut l'infinitif ici) outside cities and pollution.And finally if you feel ('avoir' serait mieux) difficulties to fall ("in +verbe-ing") asleep, it's maybe because your room is not dark enough or hot enough (fin de la phrase). ]...(Nouvellle phrase) and to do 20 minutes a day of exercises can allow have ('aider' + prenom + l'infinitif)a good night.

Merci d'avoir répondu! J'ai encore une petite question, j'hésite toujours entre for + ing ou to + infinitif, dans le cas ci-dessous au lieu de to keep good health j'ai mis for keeping good health, est ce que c'est correct aussi?
Et dans votre correction pour to fall asleep, c'est donc for falling asleep? car je ne comprends pas ce que vous vouliez dire..
Merci par avance
In conclusion thanks to this presentation we can affirm that for keeping good health it's better:
To reduce the number of preterm birth, pregnant women shoud avoid planned caesarian sections, IVF pregnancies and smoking.
We also see that people who drink alcohol and smoke have less risks of mouth and throat cancer if they drink 4 cups of coffee,
Moreover it is better not to drink energy drinks which are bad for heart attacks caused by the component called Taurine.
If you jog, it's adviced jogging outside cities and pollution
And finally if you have difficulties to fall asleep, maybe it's because your room is not dark enough or hot enough. And finally to do 20 minutes a day of exercises can help people have a good night.
Thank you for your attention.

Hello.
You should repost after you make the corrections suggested by bluestar.
Please note advice is not a verb; it is a noun.
'Keep good health' sounds a little unnatural...other possibilities..stay healthy...maintain good health
I would say...if you have difficulty falling asleep
It's maybe because would be better as...it may be because...
Consider using exercise as the verb in this phrase: 'to do 20 minutes a day of exercises'.

Hello,
In conclusion thanks to this presentation we can affirm that for keeping (see Sherry's suggestion) good health it's better:
To reduce the number risk of preterm birth, pregnant women should avoid
S'ils fument et vont avoir une césarienne ou un traitement de IVF, ils devraient arrêter de fumer à l'avance (a traduire)
We also see that people who drink alcohol and smoke have less risks of mouth and throat cancer if they drink 4 cups of coffee,(tous les jours? chaque semaine?)
Moreover it is better not to drink energy drinks which
If you jog, it's adviced (advis----) jogging (infinitive) outside cities and pollution
Thank you for your attention.
