Nowadays, an increasing number of people are relying on convenience foods as their regular meals due to their daily busy schedule. I think the drawbacks of
this
outweigh the benefits because fast
food
is detrimental to the individual’s health.
Admittedly, there are several benefits of eating ready meals. One of these is that ready to eat meals help people save time in their busy schedule, simply because they do not need to spend more time to prepare their foods.
For instance
, people will just drop by in any fast
food
or convenience store and buy a meal that they wants and re-heat
this
once they reach home and eat. Whereas home cook meal will consume more time in which many busy people avoided.
Furthermore
, ready meals are affordable and lots of different cuisines to choose from. Home cook meals are quite expensive because of fresh meats and vegetables.
Thus
, cooking varieties of foods to eat are burden for people.
However
, with the existence of ready meals in different types people can now buy without breaking their banks.
For example
, many groceries and
stores are now have ready to eat meals in affordable price,
such
as Burger and fries, Chicken with rice that comes with a pretty cheap price.
Despite these benefits, I believe that the drawbacks of ready meals for many individuals in
this
fast paced modern life outweigh the advantages. One of these is that it can cause health issue in the long run. Because basically fast
food
is unhealthy meals, it contains large amounts of preservatives, saturated fats, salt and sugar.
Therefore
, consuming convenient
food
on a regular basis might result in obesity.
In addition
, eating fast
food
on a daily basis can lead to serious illnesses
such
as diabetes and kidney failure. To illustrate
this
, a recent report in Health and Care weekly magazine showed that over 69% of regular fast
food
consumers have overweight problem and have obesity-related illness namely diabetes and kidney problem.
In conclusion: even though fast
food
has many benefits for many individuals in
this
modern busy world. I think that convenient meals are harmful to people’s health because it can lead to serious illnesses.
