this
statement is very true Linking Words
due to
the various reasons outlined below.

, adverts for fast food are on the rise nowadays. In return, Linking Words
this
leads to children unnecessarily begging their parents to buy them junk food. Linking Words
For example
, a study has proven that 89 per cent of children opt to go for eatables that pose health hazards to the body just because they've been shown an attractive advertisement about oily meals. Linking Words
Hence
, governments should actively take part in reducing the promotion of an unhealthy diet through the media or even publically by any means necessary.
It is Linking Words
also
a widely known fact that unhealthy eatables are relatively cheaper in comparison to healthy and organic diets that are good for the body. Producers purposely do Linking Words

so that individuals have no option but to go for meals that aren't rich in vitamins. Linking Words
