Junk food is defined as food that is unhealthy and have low nutritional value(Family Joural 2005).Junk have been related to many problems like health and behaviour.The problems seems more serious among the teenagers.Teenagers usually get their junk food from school canteen.So,an issue have arise whether the selling of junk food should be banned or not?
Junk food as we know can caused health problems.It contains a lot of fat,salt and sugar(Family Journal 2005).All this ingredients can cause obesity.Another ingredient in junk food that is found to be a threat is chemical addictives.Most of this substances can cause behavioural problems like hyperactive and poor concentration.In addition,childhood obesity can lead to future cases of heart disease,osteoarthtitis and some cancers.
Students that have large proportion of junk food in their food intake will not managed to get nutrients they need for healthy developement and growth,and thus their learning potential is reduced(Caputo 2005).More worsen to this fact is most youngster nowadays have less participate in physical activities.Statistic show 18% of Australian school students never involved in physical activities and 40& only involves in weekend(Weekend News 2005).This will also lead to a health problems as been stated earlier.
Next,fast food packaging is the majority contribution to litter problems(Family Journal 2005).If sells of junk food is banned school groundsmen does not have to spend so long cleaning the grounds and thus they can concentrate on maintanence project which benefit the school itself(Green 2005).Also,the litter from junk food have caused the cleaning cost to increase also it reflects a bad image of the community.
In a nut shell,the selling of junk food should be banned as this step can help to reduce many problems like health,behaviour and litter.

ReplyDeleteactually i'm not good on commenting other's work but i will try my best.in my opinion, the thesis statement in introductory sentence should be improved by making it clearer.if i'm not mistaken,you should state whether you are for or against the topic in the introductory sentence.the first body paragraph should also be improved by providing the appropriate citation for every examples.the conclusion summarize all the points in the essay but i think it should be reviewed and convinced with your opinion whether to for or against the topic.the topics are sufficiently expanded and explained,all main ideas are included and informations are drawn from all texts.for the grammar part,sorry,i'm not good in grammar but i think there is no apparent grammatical mistakes.overall,it is a well written essay.nice work :D
