Many manufactured food and drink products contain high levels of sugar, which causes many health problems. Sugarly products should be made more expensive to encourage people to consume less sugar. Do you agree or disagree?
high levels of
sugar
are contained in many manufactured food
and drink products
. This
contributes to a lot of health
problems
. I partly agree that these things ought to be more expensive to protect people
from serious diseases.
To begin
with, making sugary food
and drinks higher prices lead to extending many individuals' lives. Nowadays, many people
regardless of whether younger or older generations tend to get sick such
as diabetes compared to the pre-modern world. For example
, from a Japanese point of view, sugar
was one of the most precious things there. Therefore
, although
they could not purchase it, they did not have such
a disease. On the contrary
, many individuals have metabolic syndrome nowadays. In other words
, many of them easily get into health
trouble. Thus
, by highering prices, it is likely going to reduce these cases.
On the other hand
, making expensive products
have some drawbacks. Firstly
, it may torture people
who are in financial problems
. Although
taking too much sugar
is harmful to them, taking an appropriate amount of sugar
contributes to people
's health
. In this
case, highering prices mean forcing them not to buy even a little amount of it. Hence
, it may lead to some health
problems
.
Secondly
, sugar
is contained in most manufactured food
and drink products
. This
means if they changed the price of it, most food
and drink products
would be expensive. Therefore
, this
will raise the living costs and may occur different complications such
as financial ones.
In conclusion, raising the price of sugar
certainly have a benefit related to health
problems
. Nevertheless
, this
may lead to some disadvantages in terms of financial dilemmas.Submitted by k41tanaka on
