The number of overweight individuals is increasing day by

day; therefore, a lot of people, especially young people, are at


risk of health problems. There are some reasons behind this
phenomenon, which is obesity. While many teenagers exercise
in order to become healthy and strong, sedentary lifestyle is
more popular than ever. Modern technology and the Covid-19
pandemic encourage young people who after 2020 are used to
being lazy to stay inside even when it is over. Another major
cause, and also the root cause for obesity, is fast foods like
hamburger, hot dog, etc. Although these foods are delicious,
cheap and convenience, they are high in calories and have
little nutritional value. Many adolesents are addicted to these
unhealthy foods, slowly making them fat. Last but not least,
the society has changed a lot and it brainwashed the young.
The appearance of social media also means more
advertisement, and those about foods usually trick our brain
with their “expensive brand”. Some of these foods are
processed foods, which is indeed not great but we still use it
because of the brand. In another word, obesity is mainly
caused by the unhealthy lifestyle of the young and fast-food
consumption.
