In this essay we will talk about junk food, it is a food high in fats and sugars. Junk food is popular
among the Chilean population as it creates opportunities to share and is much more accessible, but
do we know the damage it does to us?.

We are against junk food, because it is harmful to health, since a health survey reveals that 27.6%
are overweight and 13.2% are obese, in adolescents from 15 to 19 years old. which makes it very
harmful for adolescents since they provide high amounts of saturated fats and simple
carbohydrates, which are elements that contribute to excessive weight gain which is associated with
cardiovascular diseases.

On the other hand, junk food affects your daily life, especially in adolescents.The high levels of sugar
and fat found in junk food interrupt the regular functioning of the nervous system and therefore,
some cognitive processes. Therefore, adolescents are affected in their studies, their ability to
understand decreases and it is more difficult for them to learn. We also know that junk food is one
of the main factors of insomnia.

In conclusion, we do not agree with the consumption of junk food because it contains excess fat and
sugar. It generates diseases and obesity if you consume in excess, in addition, the majority of the
Chilean population consumes this type of food, which is why we are one of the countries with the
highest percentage of obesity. We chose this topic because we find it interesting that something that
we consume almost always or daily it hurts us so much and we don't know it
