In many countries, fast food is becoming cheaper and more widely available. Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
Around the world today, there is an increase in the availability of snacks and a reduction in prices. I believe
this
recent development has more negative than positive effects on the health and well-being of the people.

To begin
, already made food is now being sold all over the world, Linking Words
this
increase in demand has been caused by various factors. Linking Words
Firstly
, they are cheap and as Linking Words
such
very affordable to buy as both the poor and rich would be able to access them. Linking Words
For example
, burgers and pancakes contain a large amount of sugar in them thereby making them tasty and are now being sold for a penny. Linking Words
Secondly
, they contain a large number of calories and are more satisfying. Linking Words
Finally
, they can be easily accessed from every ten-kilometre distance in most cities resulting in an increase in their consumption.

However
, irrespective of the benefits these foods seem to have, I`m of the opinion that their drawbacks outweigh their advantages as snacks and other fast foods are mostly carbonated and stored with preservatives that are highly cancerous to the health and wellbeing of man, a case scenario is noodles being sold in Nigeria. Linking Words
This
meal, despite being delicious, contains a chemical called MSD Linking Words
that is
used as its preservative and has been proven by scientists to be very cancerous and putting the consumers at risk of having cancer. Linking Words
Also
, snacks contain a high amount of Sodium and unsaturated fat, a typical illustration is a pizza which contains these substances and predisposes one to have heart conditions Linking Words
such
as hypertension and atherosclerosis thereby increasing the risk of heart failure.
To conclude, junk is now being made less expensive and available for consumption, as much as Linking Words
this
development favours individuals the consequential health challenge these substances stand to give humans to be greatly considered and I,Linking Words
therefore
,recommend that government regulate the sales of these edible.Linking Words
