The fast food damages our
health
We all know that the store Kentucky
Fried Chicken (KFC) or McDonald’s is a kind of giant retail chain which is
spread throughout all over the world. They are famous for offering cheap and
fast food, but delicious. However, the food that comes from McDonald’s is
contained high great amount of food hormone which can damage our health seriously;
what’s more, it would cause other disease such as the diabetes, obesity and
high blood pressure and so on. In the article “French Fries as contraband” by
Kathy Mcmanus, the author indicates clearly that eating fast food can destroy
our health which will cause gradually other unpredicted diseases, the other
idea the author explores is that city government is taking some measures to
reduce the fast food stores by giving away the food policy. I strongly agree
that we should reduce the behavior of eating fast food or any junk food because
of the importance of our health.
According to the article, a
social study from the city of Los Angeles point out clearly that the phenomenon
of eating fast food cause a lot of people to suffer from diabetes and obesity,
it states “and the highest rates of diabetes and obesity, 30% of adults in the
area are overweight,” it suggests that 3 out of 10 people get the disease of
diabetes or obesity because they eat great amount of fast food in the stores,
in the other words, it means that there still be many people who do not realize
the truculence of unhealthy fast food. This is similar to my memory back in
China, my friend always go to McDonald’s store twice a week for enjoyment. I
advised him not to go there often because the fast food does not contain any
nutrition which hurt his body, he replied me that he could not fend against the
delicacy of fast food, so that he kept going to McDonald’s store as usual. One
day I saw him in the street, I hardly recognized him if he did not call me, he
became obese enough so that he felt regretful.
Furthermore, the article
delves into how the city government carries out some measures to control the
opening of fast food in the area, it says that “the city of Los Angeles
recently sank its teeth into the issue by banning any new fast food restaurants
from opening in a 32-square-mile are of low-income South Central LA for at
least one year.” It explains that the government gives away the policies that
prevent the new fast food stores from opening in one area at least on year. In
the other words, it means that it can prevent a lot of people of that area from
buying fast food, to make people get the realization of the perniciousness of
fast food.
All in all, the article “French
Fries as contraband” by Kathy Mcmanus raise an important issue to today’s
world, we should obtain the realization that fast food can destroy our health,
so we should reduce the habit of eating the junk food or any unhealthy food, because
our health comes firs
