There has been a growing concern about the pro and contra of the exclusive taxes on foods and

beverage with high levels of sugar that has been introduced lately by lot of governments in the world.

First of all, this policy is can be viewed from both perspective, the positive side and the negative side.
There is a lot of positive impact about this taxes. For example, it will decrease the amount of diabetes
and obese cases, it can boost up the following country economy, and it will minimalized the chance of
getting caries. On the other hand, the negative effect will be the ascending cost of high sugar food and
beverages.

In addition, I generally agree on the idea of adding particular taxes to high sugar containments foods and
beverages due to the escalating number of diabetes case and the amount of obese cases.

The cases of diabetes and obese has been skyrocketing recently caused by the lifestyle of people.
Nowadays, people tends to consume a massive amount of sugar which make them prone to disease and
illness. Nevertheless, this policy will ascend the price of high sugar logistics and hope to reduce the
number of purchase.

Furthermore, I suggest authorities shall limit the usage and containment of sugar in food and beverages
and label them so citizen could reconsider of purchasing them, especially snacks and chocolate.

In summarize, there is be a pros and cons on this special taxes. However, as far as I can see the positive
impacts are more dominant than the negative impact.
