Nowadays, the overweight
problems
 bother a great number of
people
 all over the world. Unfortunately, not only the elder generation is involved in
this
 issue, but
also
 the younger one is suffering from it.
This
 essay is aimed to highlight the causes and introduce some possible solutions that could preserve young
people
 from obesity. The
first
 and most obvious reason why
such
 happens is the unhealthy eating habits of
children
 in all countries.
In other words
, since

, KFC and all over fast-food restaurants have become available for
children
, the younger generation has their lunches in places that serve junk food
instead
 of going home and eating home-cooked dishes. The effects of an unhealthy diet are extremely serious. Unfortunately,
this
 leads not only to overweight but
also
 to some health effects

 connected with the stomach and makes

problems
 that could happen with their bodies because of the attention lack to
this
 vital issue.
Secondly
, a lack of sport in
children
’s lives and having a sedentary lifestyle are vital and essential
problems
 that should be solved as an unhealthy diet. That means that because of the transition of our world to the digital one,
children
 spend a major part of their time sitting or lying in front of notebooks, monitors or phones. Unfortunately, it is a new reality that
people
 should admit and try to find solutions to some
problems
 that it has. Some of the counties in the world come up with very obvious and helpful solutions.
Instead
 of making additional classes for computer science or chess in the junior schools, the authorities decided to make
children
 fall in love with sports and different games that they can play in their free from studies time with their friends. The result was great and
this
 experience should be taken into account. To sum up, being overweight among
children
 is a serious problem that could be solved with both help of authorities and parents. In future,
people
 will take care of their health and obesity will not be a problem for
people
.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.
