In many developed countries, fast food is cheap and widely available. Many people tend to choose unhealthy option. what can governments do to solve this problem.

Nowadays eating fast

food

has become the norm

due to

the fact that there are more fast

food

chains these days that offer cheap deals, making it easy for the public to choose to buy unhealthy foods

instead

.

This

essay will discuss what kinds of solutions governmental authorities could act upon to counteract the growing issue. 

To begin

with, Governmental authorities could implement a fast

food

tax.

As a result

, not only would many people would become discouraged causing them to decide against purchasing taxed items but, shopkeepers would think twice about only selling

food

that has taxed items as they would

also

need to spend more money to make money, leading them to a healthier choice.

Furthermore

, they should

also

introduce a cap on how many stores open that only sell unhealthy

food

.

Additionally

, I advise a complete stop or reduction in fast

food

advertisements, because, seeing a Macdonals ad ,

for example

, puts the idea of consuming unhealthy meals in people's heads.  To continue, It is necessary for governmental authorities to impose an educational curriculum in schools about unhealthy cuisine choices and how they harm the body. Educating

while

young prevents them from picking up bad habits

as well as

teaches them about the consequences of those actions. To give an example, in Somalia, schools teach children about healthy and unhealthy diets.

In addition

, they teach them about heart disease and diabetes that result from consuming foods that cause

such

illnesses

therefore

that are more people that are healthy compared to unhealthy. The nation now barely has any chains that offer fast

food

because of rules like

this

that have been put in place.

To conclude

, I believe that if governments implement these rules, it could save lives in the long run.
