It is believed by researchers that eating unhealthy
food
 and snacks compromises
people
's well-being and put their health at risk. There are
also
 disagreements about whether educating
people
 solves the
problem
 or not. I believe, teaching
people
 could result in them adopting a healthy lifestyle and curbing
junk
 foods. providing
people
 with effective
education
 might help them to be aware of the consequences of eating too much
food
 which is not nutritious. consuming unhealthy foods
such
 as
junk
food
 can bring some health problems in the long term
as a result
 of gaining weight,
such
 as obesity. If
people
 be aware of the potential risk in the future, it is possible to help them make the right decision to not eat too much unhealthy meals. It is true that some cannot be convinced by
education
 despite
this
,
education
 could benefit those who

 not know about possible health issues.
On the other hand
, in
this
 debate, some believe that
education
 is not an effective solution to tackle
this
problem
. banning
junk
food
 advertisements could
also
 be a better alternative solution to
this
 difficulty.
This
, the supporters say, stems from the fact that
although
people
 have been educated in schools to eat harmless and nutritious meals, they are not careful with their
junk
food
 consumption.
Therefore
, a part of
this
problem
 can be put by the strong advertisements which can be controlled by the government. As unhealthy
food
 advertisements can encourage
people
 to buy and eat more harmful meals. In conclusion, In my opinion,
although
 there might be other reasons for the
problem
 of
people
 eating too many foods which are not valuable to eat, poor
food
 advertising can be dealt with by limiting them and raising
people
's awareness through
education
 can be a better measure to be taken.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
