Introduction Nowadays, the consumption of junk
food
 is increasing among teenagers and middle age groups, and it seriously affects their fitness level. In some nations, many
people
 are suffering from obesity and their levels of physical activity and
health
 status are declining. I think the biggest causes of these
problems
 are the consumption of junk

. I think
awareness
 about nutrition and calories, and allocating some hours for physical
activities
 would be the most effective way to solve these
problems
. The foremost
problems
 caused by decreasing their
health
 and fitness are consuming high-calorie
food
 and spending too much
time
 in office work. Nowadays,
people
 are consuming fast
food
 and it contains high amounts of calories as well as unhealthy nutrients.
Furthermore
, many
people
 seem quite busy with their office work, and due to ,
this
 they could not allocate
time
 for physical
activities

 and involved in physically demanding
activities
 like running, home workouts, and yoga. If government conducts a plan about giving
awareness
 about proper diet plans, many citizens would not prefer to consume fast
food
 products and they can get knowledge about the importance of a healthy diet.
Furthermore
, every
people
 should do yoga or physically demanding
activities
 in order to be healthier and fit enough. Every
people
 need to add these
activities
 to their regular
activities
 as mandatory. A doctor,
for instance
, is always busy with their patients but along with that they
also
 allocate some
time
 for physical exercise and they only prefer to take hygienic
food
, due to
this
 more than 90 per cent of doctors seem healthier and fit enough. in a nutshell,
people
 have to be conscious of their own
health
. If government conducts an
awareness
 program, many
people
 may know the importance of
health
 and
people
 have to add physical
activities
 to their to-do list and should follow regularly.

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.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
