OBESITY

Currently, obesity is an increasingly widespread problem throughout the world. Previously, this problem hardly existed, but today, because of the increase in restaurants that sell fast food, this problem is increasing significantly. Only thirty years ago in England, there was one in ten children with obesity problems, but currently there is one out of four, and this is increasing. For this we will discuss the problems associated with obesity.


First of all, I must say that obesity can cause many problems to our body, even death. Obesity causes an increase of sugar in the arteries, which can cause heart attacks or problems with sugar in blood. Also, it causes a considerable increase of body weight and great exhaustion, even when moving a few meters.


Secondly, there are Fast food retsaurants around the world, but not only that, it is also an important factor that this society is becoming a fast society, meaning that everything is done a hurry and, therefore, no time to stop and eat. That is why estates encourage this type of food, which influences people in favour of fast food. Therefore, the fastest way to lower obesity would be stop promoting a fast life and stop more to appreciate the small things in life, and healthy food tastes better. Finally, I must say that other causes of obesity are the additives that are added to fast food, such as sugar or salt, because you want to eat this food and this desire is difficult to stop.


In conlusion, I think that increasing obesity is a problem that can be avoided, so that it becomes to a percentage of an obese child in ten. To achieve this, estates should promote healthy food and end this fast-paced society in which we live.

  4. I think that this opinion essay is good structured and I think that the people who suffer from obesity, this disease is caused by a bad alimentation and the influence of fast-food restaurant (how toledo has said.) I think that you have made a good work, well done!
