Razz Hi!!! I am Soi. In my opinion, Junk food is easy food such as chocolate, soft drinks, cakes,ice cream, potato chips, burgers, hotdogs or hot chips. Junk food is very important for many people that they have less time because junk food is fast and convenient. But I think junk food is very bad for health because if the people eat the junk food every day that they don�t receive nutrition. The people that who often eat junk food they have opportunity to be fat disease, heart disease, malnutrition and avitaminosis because junk food is high in salt, sugar, fat or calories and low nutrient content. So I think everybody should to eat food that contain about vitamin or nutrient such as vegetable, fruit or cereals. After you eat necessary food for health you can feel your body is stronger than you eat junk food. Laughing

Embarassed I think junk food is not good for my health because junk foods usually contain high amounts of salt. While you eat junk food that it has salts too much, so you will to increased risk of high blood pressure, which is a factor for heart disease. And junk foods like soft drinks, cordials, biscuits and cakes have high sugar content. If you eat junk food that it contain high sugar you will become tooth decay, increased tendency for blood clots, increased risk of colorectal cancer and childhood obesity. I think everybody should eat food that it contain vitamin or nutrient instead junk food if you have more time. And avoid eating junk food for your good health in the future. Shocked

Rolling Eyes I would include foods that are high in salt, sugar, fat or calories and low nutrient content are junk food. If you want to eat junk food you will pay more money to buy it and beside you became to fat or increased your weight. So I think junk food is very bad for my life and everybody. Don�t worry about it if you are fat after you eat junk food. You must decreased to eat junk food and do exercise every day. You should eat food that it contain fiber, vitamin, or nutrition instead junk food.
And you can to see the doctor or go to meet dietitian together. I f you can do this you will become slim body and good health better than many people who eat junk food every day. Sure!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nowadays, junk food is very popular in Thailand. Lot of people like it because it is easy to buy and easy to eat. You can buy junk food from department store, convenient store etc. However, junk food is not good for you health, so we should have avoided junk food and tried to eat food which is useful for you. There are two reasons for the people who want to avoid eating junk food. First, junk food is bad for health. It does not have nutrient for health. It you eat too much, you will be diabetes and high blood pressure. In addition, carbohydrate in junk food is cause high weight. Finally, junk food is expensive. The price is not balance with nutrient that you get from junk food. In addition, you should have spent your money to buy something that is useful for health. In conclusion, Junk food is not good for health and it is expensive too, so we should have eaten vegetable and fruits because it is good for health. Do you still like junk food?

Junk food is expensive because it has a brand name, example KFC. Junk food is useless for human. And it can make you fat.

Some foods should only be eaten occasionally. Junk food are foods like potato chips, chocolate, cakes, lollies, soft drinks and some takeaway food like hamburgers and hotdogs. These foods are usually low in nutrients and high in salt, sugar or fat. They are 'extras' to be enjoyed occasionally.

If these foods regularly replace more nutritious and healthy foods in your diet, you are likely to become overweight and may develop vitamin and mineral deficiencies and other health problems

I always thought junk foods were those artificially processed foods. I didn't expect fast foods were also junkfood (although I don't consider most fastfood to be healthy)

Nowadays,Thai people eat junk food more than the past because most people get up early to go to work. They have less time to eat breakfast so they eat junk food instead. I think, Thai people should not eat junk food for 2 reasons. Firstlt, it does not contain enough nutrition for the body. On each day, human should recieve complete nutrition, but junk food contains only carbohydrate and fat.It does not provide protein and vitamin. Secondly, it can cause fat disease. When you eat junk food every day, it accomulate in a part of your body and it increases chloresteral in your blood vessel. Therefore, Thai people should eat food that have a lot of nutririon for the body. What do you think about this topic?

Hi, Very Happy
I think this topic is really intresting for me when I read your comment/
I never though that Thai people eat a lot of junk food recently.
When I hear about a word 'junk ' food ,I just think about 'America' ,I don't know why. I guess I assumed Americans eat only junk food;like humbergers,fried potatos,pizza, fried chiken etc...
We need to consider more about junk food that will ruin our body if people keep on eating it.A chance to become a diabrtic is much higher than eating healthy food.
Is there anything we could do about it? Question
