has continued to decrease. In
this
Linking Words
essay, I will discuss some of the causes of these problems and
also
Linking Words
suggest some solutions. One of the major problems of a decrease in
weight
Use synonyms
is eating habits.
This
Linking Words
is because people no longer take into consideration their diet, the kinds of
food
Use synonyms
that they eat.
For example
Linking Words
, people consuming
food

rich in fats will tend to increase in size that those consuming less fatty
food
Use synonyms
. To solve
this

problem,
health

ministries along with national orientation agencies of these countries should embark on a nationwide public awareness campaign enlightening the masses on the need to take their diet seriously, and eat more of less fatty
food
Use synonyms
. As a consequence, there will be an increase in

loss among the population. One of the major causes of a decline in
health

and
fitness

is lack of regular exercise. The reason for
this

could be
as a result

of lack facilities or interest.
For instance

activity.
Also

, certain individuals may generally not have interest due to lack of awareness and the

of staying fit. To tackle these challenges, the government should establish more wellness centres, so that people could easily gain access to them. In conclusion,
although

such

as an increase in average

and a decline in wellbeing, these problems are not insurmountable. In my view, it is the government’s responsibility to solve these issues using the solutions proposed above.
