Many manufactured food and drink products contain high levels of sugar, which causes many health problems. Sugary products should be made more expensive to encourage people to consume less sugar. Do you agree or disagree?

Due to the current ever-growing innovation of science and modern technology which fortuitously become a medium leads to development in manufactured

food

and beverage. As a matter of fact, high

sugar

content

products

become one of the inevitable outcomes and are easily being found in numerous groceries or supermarkets. In my point of view, I totally agree that sugary

products

should be taxed at a higher rate to minimize

sugar

consumption. In fact, people that consume an excess of

sugar

than usual for a long time surely suffer unexpected diseases in the future. According to scientific documents, various types of illnesses are seriously harmful, namely, obesity, along with other incurable diseases

such

as diabetes and cancer. Coke is a prime example, there are 39 grams of

sugar

in an original 12 oz Coca-cola can and if we drink one, our body needs 2 hours to consume everything while during which time, our brain loses concentration and possibly endures a little headache.

In addition

,

products

that contain high levels of

sugar

not only are harmful to our health but

also

are expensive. Obviously, unlike fresh

food

, they are frequently packed

products

so it is undeniable that the production cost is correspondingly high.

For instance

, in Vietnam, with 1 dollar, we can purchase fresh

food

in markets and prepare a fully nutritious meal while with the equivalent amount, we can only afford one big size Coca-cola bottle. In conclusion, absorbing high

sugar

content

food

or beverage not only cause harm to our body but

also

our finance. The government should be in action as quick as possible to protect citizens health by immediately providing solutions to encourage people to reduce their high

sugar

food

consumption.
