Most teenagers don’t enough fruit or vegetables and more than one million British school children are overweight, Some teenagers say that they don’t have time to eat good foot, but kids who have a poor diet often have health problems when they are older. Americans have been familiar with fast food for a long time, it was born there. American fast food is now a part of life far beyond the stores of United States. McDonald’s Pizza Hut, Burger king have restaurants all over the world. No one can deny that the idea of fast food at a fair price has its place around the word. These establishments are popular not simple because they are fulfilling a need within a particular country’s economy. A steady diet of burgers, fries and soda may seen delectable, but it won’t nourish your body with vitamins and minerals you need to stay healthy. Fast food lacks many important nutrients. Some parents are blaming the proliferation of fast food restaurants where people eat high-calorie foods of low nutritional value. Now doctors are giving young people books and games about a good diet. Having healthy, well-balanced diet can help you feel better and live longer.
