The problem of the consumption of junk food is extremely important nowadays.

Analyzing the contemporary attitudes towards consumption of fast food, one may
admit that people are obsessed with this kind of food.
It is absolutely true that any kind of food has to bring satisfaction and pleasure.
Nevertheless, fast food brings it in enormous amounts. That is to say that people can
endlessly buy junk food since they want to fill their stomachs and get the satisfaction
from such food. On the one hand, it is good. Everyone has the right to eat whatever
they like. On the other hand, the excessive consumption of fast food leads to serious
problems.
The first and most dangerous problem is obesity. Fast food destroys the physical and
mental health of individuals. The reason is obvious - the excessive weight causes
heart problems. The results can be fatal. Speaking about mental health, one may
admit that extra weight destroys an individual’s personal life because there is a loss
of physical attractiveness. Moreover, overweight people worry about the attitude of
society towards them. They realize that other members of the community could
laugh at them because of their extra weight. All of this is a direct consequence to the
excessive consumption of fast food.
Personally I believe that fast food has a negative impact on our health. The
constituent parts of fast food are dangerous for health. They make people fat and
unhealthy. The only positive fact that fast food can bring is satisfaction. Nevertheless,
it quickly disappears.
To sum up, being the most popular type of food, fast food causes negative effects
on human health. It helps individuals to put on extra weight and makes their health
poor. That is why it is important to avoid eating fast food.
