Do the dangerous derived from the use of chemicals in food production and preservation outweigh the advantages

Nowadays, most of the people in the world are depending on processed

food

which contains a huge amount of

chemicals

. Even though

chemicals

can give some advantages , the potential dangers that can be received from

this

are greater than the advantages.

Firstly

, in the cities parents always tempt with processed

foods

as most of the

time

both of the parents are going to work and they do not have enough

time

to prepare the

food

. The recent research, done by the World Health Organization, shows that more than 50% of the school children are bringing processed

foods

for their breakfast and it takes only a few minutes to prepare

this

kind of

food

.

Secondly

,

chemicals

,

such

as colourings, often used by

food

manufactures because

this

will give good looks to the

food

and most of the

time

these

foods

last

for a longer period because of the

chemicals

it contains.

However

, these ready-made

foods

contain lots of carbs and sugar and which provides a lot of disadvantages to health. Today, a lot of young people become more obese due to consuming these types of

food

additives

moreover

this

will often lead to hyperactivity among children. Companies encourage people to buy their product by showing a lot of advertisements and even sometimes they show a number of researches which support their products but most of the

time

these researches are biased and they have connections with the researchers. The evidence clearly shows that companies are getting more advantages from the

chemicals

which they use for their products than the consumers. In the long ,term consumers are ended up with health issues by consuming

this

kind of product.
