More and more people are seriously becoming overweight , some people say that increase in the price of these fattening food will solve this problem . To what extent do you agree or disagree ?
It is an undeniable fact that obesity is a burning issue across the world and has detrimental effects on the health. It is often argued that a surge in the cost of fast food can help to curb this menace. However, I firmly disagree with this notion.
Apparently, hiking the heavy food price would not benefit considerably for myriad reasons. First and Foremost, not only fast food is instant option to eat especially for working professionals , but also provides a change from staple food. To corroborate , according to BBC research it has been found that 70 % of working population in USA are dependent on outside food as their primary meals. Secondly, Unlike healthy food, fast foods have unique taste which compels people to consume them at unprecedented scale. Thus, only increasing the price of the food items is not a solution.
Furthermore, prudence will prevail if government would organise campaign to spread awareness among people regarding dismal consequences of fattening food on our health. To vindicate, according to Forbes magazine it has been found that plethora of MNC’s organise marathons for employees to keep them active. Furthermore, curative measures at individual level can mitigate this grave issue such as using bicycle for short distances, in taking green vegetables and avoid glueing to screens.
To recapitulate, although fast foods taste better and are low-cost alternative Yet merely increasing the price is not an appropriate solution and individuals have to choose healthy alternatives in order to lead a healthy life.
True👍 Great Observations!
