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.
