the end, governments possess the authority to get rid of the child obesity issue. A great first step could be reducing the insurmountable prices of healthy foods.

with less financial stability would be able to afford nutritious food for their children.

Likewise

, schools encouraging young pupils to adopt a healthy lifestyle would help immensely. The FDA laws that companies abide by should grow stricter,

forcing companies to sell nothing but nutritious products.

Conversely

, I insist that

parents

have the ultimate influence on their family. After all, an apple never falls far from the tree. Almost everything regarding a child’s mental or physical health is inextricably linked to the birth giver. All children should be encouraged to take up sports, no matter what the sport is.

being delicious and appetizing. Fast food will always exist, as it will forever be consumed.

Nonetheless

, a young one can be taught not to consume fast food regularly

due to

the harm it causes his/her health. In conclusion, it is undeniable that the government has a responsibility to create the best possible environment for a family to have good nutrition.

This

is achievable by many methods, mainly making it possible for all people to afford the ingredients in a balanced diet.

However

, I believe the

parents

will always have the greatest authority, as they are closest to their young ones.
