In some countries, an increasing number of people are suffering from health problem as a result of eating too much fast food. It is therefore, necessary for governments to impose a higher tax on this kind of food. To what extant do you agree or disagree with this statement?

It is natural that
people
tend to eat fast
food
rather than healthy home cooking. In spite of an increasing number of workers do not have to go to work, it may be the cause of the sedentary lifestyle which is a huge impact on those who work from home. In my opinion, I agree with
this
statement. Perhaps one of the main physical major problems is getting fat.
People
may incline to obesity or inadequate development.
This
is likely to happen more in most high standard living
countries
than in developing
countries
.
For example
,
people
have to go to the market in order to get organic
food
in the latter
countries
I have mentioned whereas they can order pre-packaged parcels online which is more convenient and affordable. But it contains a number of unhealthy ingredients like too much sugar, additional flavour and salt. If they consume
this
kind of
food
as the way they add these to the staple diet in daily routine, they would get some serious health problems
such
as high blood pressure, diabetes and so on.
In other words
, while fast
food
is only beneficial in the short term, its long term effects are gradually increasing. In the past few years, junk
food
is creeping into day-to-day meal patterns especially in young children and teenagers. Big brands like
McDonalds
Change to a genitive case
McDonald's
show examples
and Starbucks are particularly good examples. A number of
people
in most of the western
countries
are now faced with
such
affairs and the statics are more growing significantly.
Therefore
, not only governments should impose a higher tax on
those kind
Change the determiner
that kind
those kinds
show examples
of companies but
also
start an initiative to raise awareness of the risks of the situations through health warnings on the packaging or through high profile influencers spreading
such
a message. To sum up, there are undoubtedly benefits of junk
food
, various problems would stem from
this
too. Individuals and government should participate together to ameliorate these issues.
