A great swathe of the population enjoys eating food that is non-nutritious and that has a deleterious effect on their health despite knowing this is the case. This essay shall explore the reasons behind this phenomenon, along with suggesting methods that could help people to eat more healthily.
One of the major causes behind this habit of eating unhealthy food is that many of these foods are convenient to either purchase or prepare. This is especially true when it comes to the fast-food industry, whereby instead of finding healthy alternatives, many people will simply opt for the easy and time-saving method of ordering from McDonald's or KFC, or other such junk food outlets. Likewise, in today’s world of disposable goods and ready-to-use products, many have become lazy and would rather elect for opening a package of processed food than to spend the time buying healthy ingredients to cook by themselves.
To counteract this trend of unhealthy eating, probably the most effective method that can be brought to bear on this trend is that of education. Just as Mcdonald's understands that marketing to children can help secure future consumers, so society should understand that by educating the young about the benefits of eating healthy food, they are more likely to avoid unhealthy foods in their later life. Government regulations can also help to squelch peoples’ desire for foods that in the long-term can have a devasting effect on health, with such policies as an anti-fat tax or an extra tax on foods that contain additives proven to be toxic, helping to guide citizens’ dietary habits.
In conclusion, the main impetuses for people to acquire an unhealthy dietary tendency are those of convenience and laziness, and that both education, especially of the young, and governmental regulatory policies, can help to overcome this negative trend within society.
