The Government should ban junk food advertising during the times when young children are watching TV. In addition of that, young children ask their parents to buy then junk food meals because the advertisers target them. The Government should also teach people about the benefits of eating health food.
Other people’s ideas about junk food – how there are wrong
The most people who consume junk food believe that junk food is tasty, cheap and easy to buy. Why, because many work long time and after that they will not spend time for buying ingredients and cooking at home. Contrary to what most people believe, I think that junk food causes many problems to people’s health.

All it takes is a little planing to cook healthy food to keep your family healthy. Another major reason you can also save a lot of money by buying good ingredients and cooking a healthy and tasty food at home.
To sum up, we should ban junk food advertisements to encourage people to live a healthier lifestyle, to more exercise and to enjoy the home-cooked meal.

Nowadays, more and more people eat the junk food every day around the world. Especially the kids, the junk foods include chips, soft drink, burgers and so on. Does this food should be banned or not? That’s a big question.

Some people reckon it is good, because these foods are very convenient and cheap, and most important all the junk food are smell very nice and taste good, but some of them think they should be banned as they are unhealthy.
As we know, the junk foods contain much more sugars, salt, mixed with additives, sweetener, and caffeine; according statistics: a can of coke contains 10 teaspoons of sugar. The report from scientist shows: eat much more junk foods could cause asthma, rashes, heart disease, and obesity, diabetes, etc. For example the heart disease, too much bad food can cause arteries to get blocked up; this narrows the arteries and makes it harder for the blood and oxygen to flow to the heart muscle.
The UK junk food companies spend 300m pound on ads each year for promoting their products to children. The American kid spends 25 hours a week watching TV; they give the toys for free when they order kids meal. So the kids ask their parents to buy the junk foods for them. As we mentioned above junk food is delicious, that is a big temptation for the kids and adults, even people knows its not healthy but they still like it, so lots of money were spent them every year from the families .

In my opinion, I think the government should step in and ban junk food ads from TV at time when children might be watching.

The parents should prepare more veggies and fruit for their kids and meanwhile educate their children what foods they should to choose are healthy and could keep them have a healthier life.

Junk food should be banned
Most people probably eat junk food. It is very easy to buy and eat because junk foods are everywhere. So, most of us have a meal outside of the home three to four times each week.

Frankly, a lot of parents know that Junk foods are typically ready-to-eat convenience foods containing high levels of saturated fats, salt, or sugar. Common junk foods include salted snack foods, candy, gum, most sweet desserts, fried fast food and carbonated beverages as well as alcoholic beverages. However, many children still like eating junk foods at fast food outlets like Mcdonalds, KFC etc.,

First of all, we should know what junk foods can lead for children. Although it's uncertain that children become hyperactive by eating too much sugar, The fact of the matter is that junk food is directly associated with the increase in obesity, heart disease, high blood pressure, certain cancers, tooth decay, and other diseases. Additionally, research has shown that heart and blood vessel disease can begin very early.

In addition to this, many junk food companies want to target children as young as 2 because children can be lifelong loyalty customers. Even those companies are using artificial flavours for junk food that can cause asthma, rashes and hyperactivity. Nowadays, A lot of children like artificial flavours than the taste of real food such as fruits, fishes. As a result, It is very hard for children to find out what is real.

Although junk food has many disadvantages, a lot of parents both work want to buy junk food for family can save much time. Some people believe that is not bad to live in this world with junk food.

To conclude, Junk food should be banned in the world in terms of killing our children, changing our real world, making our health worth. Furthermore, Parents should carefully read food labels to check nutrients and ingredients.

How is nowadays that people eat junk food

What is junk food? why we should bend junk food ads?

3 reason one

Too many junk food ads for kids. How to bend junk food ads

4 reason two

Junk food is not healthy

5 other’s opinions

6 Conclusion
Junk food advertising must be banned

Today we can see junk food and its advertisement everywhere. People may eat junk food or see its ads everyday. Many people think that junk foods are tasted, cheap, and easy to get. Some people even think shearing junk food is a good Socializing. That’s why children star eating them in their age of 2 or even younger.



But not many people know why these foods call junk food. Most of junk food options are high in fat, sugar or salt. Artificial additives can be found in each of junk food. I strongly believe that people eat food of this kind can cause a lot of harm for their body such as high blood pressure and diabetes. According to these reasons, junk food advertising must be bended of.

First of all, there are too many junk food advertising in the word. And a great number of them are aimed to kids. Take the UK as an example. The junk food companies of this country spend £500m a year on ads for kids. Not only the UK but also the USA spent over $500bn on ads aimed at children. That means American children sees around 20,000 ads a year for junk food. Young children will ask their parent to buy it. So, we should do something to stop it. On one hand, our government should do something to band the ads on the time when the children which. On the other hand parent should teach their kids don’t eat junk food.

Secondly, the way of junk food’ produce have lots of problem. They mix artificial additives in stand of real ingredients, with no or less healthy things. It’s not the same as what they said in the adv. Can you imagine a can of cola are water mixed with 10 teaspoons of sugar or sweetener, additives and caffeine. According to the report, milkshakes are just made of artificial strawberry flavor in drinks contain around 50 chemicals with not one single strawberry.

Some people believe that junk food is tasty cheap and easy to get. They also think nothing will happen after they eat junk food. I think it’s totally wrong. They will get fat sooner or later and some healthy problem will happen.

All in all, we have to stop junk food advertising, because it makes us unhealthy. We should encourage people eat food make of healthy ingredients and we’d better make food by ourselves

The increasing pollution.

Number of users public transport.

Paragraph 2.

Good results when we have free public transport.

Byproducts when we have free public transport.

Other people's ideas about free public transport.

Conclusion.

I strongly believe could have free public transport.

Public transport should be free.

It is a well-know fact that you have to pay for public transport in the inflated price and increase the burden of cost on a daily basis. And how much cost your money have to pay for public transport to go to work and school every day.

Naturally, most people in Australia have to bear to start with the cost of rental housing, finance house also for food, medicine and living. The very high compared to other developed countries of course have to work hard to make a living.

In addition to that issue in the current temporary employment leave on the public transport more expensive people are turning to the private car to save money, the cost of using public transport instead of making more pollution. Could be good if people get free public transport to help reduce your costs and in addition that to reduced traffic congestion and the environment.

According to the report, ninety percent of people in Melbourne use the private car only ten percent use public transport, so the consequence is that world energy consumption. Also Australia has to import the fuel from other country and pay big money for that.

Certainly true, The result is that it will follow if we get free public transport. To start with People have to cut costs for living not less per year. In addition that resulting in better quality of life. In the same way solve traffic jam reduce energy consumption and reduce pollution, the plan to solve the problem to a great future.

On other hand, there are ideas that. The government must bear the transportation and management fee. The import machinery also repairs. Maybe people have to pay higher taxes as well.

Consequently, I strongly believe could have free public transport. The government could think about benefit the citizens rather than negative effects. Of course, it is worth the investment for future more.

Junk Food Advertising

Nowadays, junk food is very popular all over the world. There is a lot of people eating junk food,even some people eat junk food everyday. But in my view, I object to eat junk food. As we known, junk food is unhealthy and not good for our body.

Any food that has poor nutritional value is considered unhealthy and may be called a junk food. Such as, chips, fries, soft drinks and so on. Junk foods often have too much fat, salt, sugar. No matter old people or young people having too much fat, salt, sugar a day. This will cause hypertension, obesity and other serious disease. According to the world health organization, most of developed country children who have obesity and advance development. They eat junk food too much and there are some junk foods contains a lot of hormone.

I strongly believe that eating junk food is unhealthy and cause many illnesses. That's why we should ban junk food advertising. Why junk food is so popular all over the world? Junk food chains spend a lot of money to advertising. The advertisement is telling us that junk food is tasty, cheap, convenient and all advantage. These advertisements involved in every field in our life. It appears on TV and when children watch this kind of advertisements, they will accept that junk food is good to them. Adult read newspaper and listen radio, there are a lot of advertisements. Before long, they are wrong believe junk food should be part of their own lives.

In my opinion, the government should think more for the future for our children and our people's health. First of all, governments should ban junk food advertising. Secondly, raise junk food taxes and junk food should not be allowed to be sold in school. At least, this can reduce children and young people having junk food. The last, the government should encourage people eat the health food. In fact,there are some people still believe that junk food is very nice. Let these people wake up,the government has the responsibility and obligation.

In conclusion, we should ban junk food advertisements,because eat junk food is really unhealthy and not good for our body. We need to stay away from junk food advertisements and junk food for your and your family's health.
