Unhealthy food, banning from schools


Obesity is the condition of being very overweight, to the point where your health suffers.

There is an increasing problem with obesity in the developed world, and this often starts in childhood. Some people have argued that unhealthy school meals and vending machines are partly to blame and that they should be banned.

In the UK the TV chef Jamie Oliver ran a high profile campaign to rid schools of unhealthy (junk) food, and the British government has started to take action as well.

PROS AND CONS

-Pro: Schools can play an important role in combating obesity as people tend to get into habits about how they eat when they are young.
Schools can help to make those habits healthy ones.
Schools can introduce young people to healthy food.

-Con: Schools need to teach pupils about how to make healthy choices and what makes a balanced diet. They need education on what’s good for you but then need to have the chance to choose between an apple and a chocolate bar.
Otherwise as soon as they’re out of school, they’ll eat three chocolate bars because you haven’t changed their mindset.

I begin the school very good and i want to pass 3 of eso

a debate on sport

Cons

On the other hand, sport can actually be dangerous. Millions of people are hurt playing sport each year, some of them very seriously.

Sport does teach children lessons, but not always good ones. Many children are not naturally talented and only come across failure and embarrassment on the sports field.

A debate on sport

Pros

Sport is a great way to stay fit and healthy. This is very important today as few people have jobs with physical labour and most of us travel everywhere by car. As a result many people are overweight and suffer poor health.


Sport has lots of social benefits. Sports programmes can give people a positive purpose and something to do. Societies which practise sport have lower levels of crime.
