why we should not eat junk food

                                             Why we should not eat junk food


I strongly believe that we should not eat junk food. I will provide you with adequate reasons as to why we should not be eating junk food.


Although junk food is tasty it is very high in salt and sugar. If you take in too much, sugar and you do not burn it off with exercise you could become diabetic. If you do become diabetic, you will have to have medication for the rest of your life. A sensible idea would be to not eat junk food every single day. In severe cases of diabetes gangrene sets in. This is when your body starts to rot because of of poor blood flow. Only a fool would want to have their body start to rot. That part of the body has to have an operation. The doctors amputate that part of the body. It mainly starts from the toes because it is at the bottom of your body.  Eating junk food can lead to obesity which means being very fat. Junk food has lacks of vitamins and fibra. Although you get full you get tired very quickly.


One of the reasons as to why we chose junk food over healthy food is because it saves us money. Here are two reasons why people make junk food cheap. Firstly, they put it on a low price because they want you to buy it, and because it’s high in salt and sugar you’ll really like it. And you will buy more and more and more. Has that ever happened to you? Secondly they make more money when we keep on buying unhealthy food. So sometimes they make the price even lower. So we’ll buy that instead of buying what’s good and healthy for us


Junk food that contains meat has chemicals e.g. chicken nuggets have chemicals and you could  get sick. If you continue to eat you will get cancer and that can sometimes lead to death. Imagine dying just because you ate chicken nuggets. Would you like to die just because you ate chicken nuggets? Junk food might taste good but the ingredients have poor quality. Hamburgers have poor quality of meat used. You don’t know what could be inside it, and you don’t know which part of the cow used. People spend a lot of money buying hamburgers, and all kinds of things like that when they could make it at home. If you make it yourself you know what's in it and you get full quickly. Some fast food outlets have poor hygiene. They have food poisoning which makes you very, very sick.


The first point of entry is your mouth. Junk food comes in contact with your teeth too. High salt and sugar affects your teeth too. Your teeth start to rot. Problems get worse when you do not brush your teeth regularly. You should be brushing your teeth twice a day or after every meal.  When you have problems with your teeth you have to go to the dentist. You may not realise it but going to the dentist can cost quite a lot of money. That money that you use could have a better use like buying healthy food or paying bills.

These are all my reasons as to  why we should not eat junk. I hope you remember what junk food can do next time when you eat something unhealthy.
