than required ends up leading to unhealthy body cycle and causing different types of unwanted illnesses. To explain, according to the survey conducted in 2019, 75 Percent of health issues are caused by eating too much fast

food

For example

, my cousin is an international student in Russia suffered from breathing problems which later turned into a chronic disease back in 2018 due to over-consuming fast

food

Secondly

, customers pay the same amount of taxes on fast foods as they do on other things as well.

However

, the government should impose a higher amount of taxes on these kinds of foods for the betterment of the country and the citizens future.

For instance

, my sister being a teenager consumes more McDonalds than she does the veggies or proteins which is going to harm her in future in many ways. In the end, I would like to recapitulate by stating that looking at the rise in the number of individuals facing several kinds of diseases, the government should come up with the new laws for the increase of taxes on fast
