As a result

Therefore

Therefore

Nowadays the appalling data show that the obesity has started to affect small children starting from the age of 5. More than 40 percent of 16 to 19-year-olds are obese in the United States. The experts blame junk food making health status of the population worse. So, the

Therefore
