The negative health effects of junk food.
People can’t live without food. Nowadays, there are many plenty of foods around us.
However, some foods have negative effects in our body. We called this is a junk food. I think
junk food has many negative health effects. First, there are many harmful ingredients in junk
food, and second, junk food affects increasing juvenile crime.
To begin with, junk food has many bad materials such as transfat and a food preservative.
These things cause many negative effects on our body. Many people have been eating junk
food since 1950s. As a result, many western people suffer from obesity, cancer and high
blood pressure. Also, many studies indicate people who never eat junk food are healthier than
the people who usually eat junk food. For example, today, many students are eating more and
more junk food and drinks from vending machines at school. Eating junk food causes
childhood obesity. So, nowadays, the government is trying to remove the vending machines
from school. Thus, I think junk food causes many negative effects on our body.
Next, junk food affects juvenile crime. Many studies show that teenage crime rate is
highly ranked recently. I think that it relates to eat junk food. In general, we usually eat
junk food when we eat alone and have to eat rapidly. Professor Hiroshi, psychology professor
of university of Iwate, indicates how junk food cause bad influence on people are. Many
children currently consume incredible amounts junk food. Research recently examined the
potential link between junk food and juvenile crime. Their survey shows almost 25%
criminal teenager more likely than other children to eat junk food and three times as likely to
skip breakfast. Also, the survey found that 10% of them reported eating breakfast and dinner
alone, suggesting an unsupervised diet such as junk food, they cause more violent crime than
the children who have meal with their friends and parents.
For these reasons, I firmly believe that junk food causes many negative effects on human.
And, Junk food causes people get to obesity and unstable body not only that but also it lead to
increase juvenile crime.
