The growing number of overweight people is putting a strain on the health care system in an effort to deal with the health issues involved. Some people think the best way to deal with the problem is to introduce more physical education lessons in the school curriculum? To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is true that the rate of obese

has been increasing in the modern era.

Although

it is believed by a group of

people

that the key way to tackle the problem is enhancing

sports

classes in the school curriculum. I think there are more efficient ways that can be taken into consideration to improve

. There are various reasons to support increasing more

sports

and exercise in school. One of the obvious causes is it is a long-term solution because by doing exercise and playing

,

people

might burn up a wide variety of calories,

thus

they become fit and healthy. To illustrate, having a sedentary lifestyle is a very common issue in the young generation. Nowadays they prefer watching television on the couch rather than going outside to play with friends, leading them to gain weight and face some

Hence

On the other hand

Firstly

there is a rising trend to eat fast foods like burgers, pizzas, fried chickens and so on.

Furthermore

IN conclusion, I would like to reiterate from the aforementioned discussion that to deal with an increasing number of unfit and overweight folk, public awareness and a healthy diet are more logical and powerful solutions than rising

activities in school.
