Obesity is a serious problem in many countries, especially in rich countries. Discuss ways to solve the problem. Provide specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

Obesity has recently become a common worldwide health issue as a manifestation of the sedentary
lifestyle
of people. We should know exactly what the reasons are behind
this
and
then
try to solve it
accordingly
. The main reason for obesity is because of the unhealthy, unbalanced diet many people have. People tend to eat easily cocked, ready to prepare fast foods or what we call junk foods. These short of junk foods do not contain any nutritional values and they are rich in oils, fats and sugars, and deficient in the basic nutritional elements like proteins, vitamins and minerals.
Also
with the advancement of the technology, there is widespread use of genetically modified foods which is totally unhealthy and carry the risk of many serious illnesses like Cancer.
Secondly
, the fast trend of life nowadays made people lazy and lack the motivation and energy for
exercise
. Perhaps they ended up gaining weight because the
exercise
and physical labour are completely absent from their
lifestyle
.
Finally
, the modern society that we live in promotes the easily made food items without focusing on the contents and food values.
Furthermore
, they promote for the muscle built formula with ignoring the value of
exercise
and physical fitness which is not effective at all. The solutions for
this
problem need a total change in all of our eating habits. We should revise the contents of all of our daily foods and ensure that it provides us with all the basic nutrients and all of our health-requirements
for example
, fruits, vegetables, milk, fish, meat, etc.
Moreover
, we should add the
exercise
to our daily routine, as the doctor recommend that we should practice walking daily for a minimum of 10 minutes.
Also
, we should implement
this
concept in our new generation to raise a good healthy family. The governments should have a great role in
this
by organising a campaign that would advertise for a healthy
lifestyle
and offer places for free walking and a sports centre at a low cost. In conclusion, obesity would always be a common health issue unless we change our
lifestyle
in terms of healthy and balanced diet and good physical
exercise
.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
