1. Fast Food Should Be Banned By: Logan Sykes

2. Introduction I think fast food should be banned from the U.S. because the ingredients are not good for you, it causes obesity, causes diseases, and affects brain health in a negative way.

3. Ingredients The ingredients in fast food are not good for you. There is a lot of sugar and chemicals that damage your body that can be found in fast food. One of the ingredients commonly found in fast food is high-fructose corn syrup. High fructose corn syrup is a kind of sweetener that has a lot of calories and a lot of sugar in it. Gaining calories without losing them through exercise results in weight gain, and therefore obesity. The reason fast food tastes so good is because they put unhealthy things into it, and then add a bunch of sugar.

4. Obesity The main reason fast food is bad for you is because it causes obesity. Obesity means having too much body fat. Over time, little by little, you start to gain more weight and become chubby after eating fast food continuously. There are ingredients in fast food that make it taste good even though it leads to gaining a lot of body fat, including high-fructose corn syrup, and soybean oil. If you are taking the risk of eating fast food, you are going to get more chubby and obese.

5. Diseases Fast food is so bad for you that you could get TWO kinds of diabetes, heart burn and even a heart attack from consuming it. The two kinds of diabetes you can get are Type 1 and Type 2. Diabetes increases the risk of harming your heart and your brain. One side affect from eating fast food is that you can go into shock. Getting diseases from eating fast food is ridiculous and unnecessary, but a lot of people have these diseases.

6. Brain Health Fast food is very bad for your brain and its health. You can get woozy from all that fast food that you consume. When you eat a lot of fast food your brain starts to feel tired, you lose a little knowledge and even some memory. Fast food is horrible and it affects your brain in bad ways.

7. Conclusion In conclusion fast food makes you obese, causes diseases, affects brain health negatively and has horrible ingredients. There is even a movie called “ Super Size Me “ which is about a man who eats McDonalds everyday for a month, and he became obese and got diabetes. I think fast food should definitely be banned because of all the bad things it causes, what do you think?
