Some people believe that it is the responsibility of individuals to take care of their own health and diet. Others however believe that governments should make sure that their citizens have a healthy diet. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

Nowadays an increasing number of

people

are becoming concerned about their health and the quality of their diet. There are two diametrically opposed opinions on the matter. Some

people

believe that each and every individual is responsible for their own health

while

others state that it is the government that must ensure that the citizens have healthy eating habits. Personally, I believe that

people

bear full responsibility for their

diets

for a number of reasons.

First,

nowadays there is a vast variety of products that everyone can choose from, ensuring a balanced diet consisting of different types of products with sufficient vitamins, proteins, carbohydrates and fats. Everyone can balance their

diets

according to

these factors and

also

based on their taste preferences.

However

its population consume because they make decisions regarding the quality of

prices.
