Some people claim that what many people eat in western countries is unhealthy food and that their diet is getting worse. Critics say that these countries should change their diet. What are your opinions on this?

In the

last

decades, there have been considerable advances in technology, affecting people’s lifestyle. One of the aspects of

life

which is mostly impacted by technology is the

food

people eat. There is a common belief that

western people’s diet pattern

Suggestion

a western people’s diet pattern

is getting unhealthier and that should be changed. I totally agree with

this

idea and in

this

essay I will support my opinion with examples.

Firstly

, junk foods are the main factor of obesity in western countries. Take fast foods

such

as hamburgers as an example. They are fried in a huge amount of

oil which

oil, which

is used multiple times. Since Westerns mostly follow a sedentary lifestyle, the fat gained by these kind of foods is stored in

the body

and results in fatness.

Secondly

, there are growing number of people who get diet-related diseases in western countries. Diseases,

such

as diabetes, high cholesterol, blood pressure and so on, are some examples of the impacts that unhealthy

food

might have on

health

Suggestion

the health

of the ones who eat them. As the number of fast

food

restaurants and prepared

food

companies increases, the number of sufferings from these illnesses would

increases

Suggestion

increase

too.

On the other hand

, some argue that the tendency toward prepared

food

is inevitable due to the speed of today’s

life

. People in western countries,

also

known as industrial countries, spend a large majority of their time at work.

As a result

, they don’t have much time to prepare home-made and wholesome foods. To sum up, there is a change in Westerns’ diet habit down to the change of their

life

circumstances.

Although

it’s not easy for them to cook healthy foods because of the lack of time, consuming fast foods may result in

to modern

diseases. In my view, a solution is for the governments to alter their people’s dietary pattern by encouraging them to eat healthier foods or increasing tax on fast foods.
