old children, the rate of obesity increased from four percent in the seventies to a staggering
eighteen percent in 2019. One of the key factors which contributed to this shocking trend is bad
food habits and the increasing fascination towards Junk Food. Children who are overweight or
obese are more likely to be obese as adults. Being overweight or obese can put children at a
higher risk for health problems such as heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, etc. during
childhood and as they age.

eating habits is one of the vital part in achieving good health. We should always try to take a
balanced diet that contains the correct proportions of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins,
minerals, and water. We should include more vegetables and fruits in our daily life as
vegetables can provide nutrients vital for health and maintenance of your body. However busy
we are on a day, we should never skip breakfasts and should ideally have a light dinner. We are
always fascinated by the world of Burgers, Chips, fried chicken and soft drinks. A regular
consumption of these food can have terrible health implications and can make you obese with
other health complications. These food are now correctly described as ‘Junk’. We should strictly
avoid these food or should take steps for a drastic reduction of this group from our lifestyle In.
recent years, a growing trend toward vegetarianism has arisen among young people due to their
increasing awareness of health, the environment and compassion for animals.
