How harmful is junk food for the body?
Now when we go out and look around us, we see rows of fast
food shops on the side of the road, at the bus stand, at the railway station,
at the airport, in the office neighborhood, and even in the alleys of the
neighborhood. The traders sit on the stalls of various junk foods with water on
their tongues, sometimes on a cart, sometimes in a small hut and sometimes in a
cooked shop. Dust from the streets, flies, dirty dishes, untreated water - all
these unhealthy aspects are forgotten and people stumble upon those foods. This
is the success of naming this food. People are really addicted to its form,
smell and taste. Due to lack of time and easy availability, we are getting
addicted to junk food outside. There are questions about the quality of those
foods and how safe they are, but we can't move on. And taking advantage of this
weakness, fast food shops are being set up in different areas like frog
umbrellas.

Most of the children nowadays complain to the doctor from
home that the child does not want to eat rice, pulses, fish, turnips, shrimp.
They love burgers, pizza, momo, masala dhosa, rolls, chaumin, sausage, nuggets.
Kentucky, McDonald's, Samucha, Venkis, Maggie - these are the names that come
to mind. All of these foods are junk food. No matter how tempting these are, it
has bad effects on the body in many ways. Let's see how junk food is harming
us.
The first two things to talk about are its obesity and
infertility. Now infertility has become a lifestyle disease. Although
infertility is a problem for adults, the seeds of this problem are sown in
childhood. The reason is our modern way of life. In earlier days children grew
up in joint families. Everyone used to play sports together. Now that they have
grown up alone in a four-walled life in a small flat, there is almost no
opportunity for physical exercise and sports. Meanwhile, the pressure of
reading and the burden of books has increased. They are busy with private
tuition, computer, music, dance, karate, cricket, football etc. Entertainment
means TV and mobile games. Eating habits have changed over time. Most of the
world today is small. So with both husband and wife working, women are not able
to devote the time they need to cook. Since there is no second person in the
house, everyone has to depend on outside food. As a result, they are becoming
accustomed to junk food instead of the traditional food. Many families have a
tradition of eating at a restaurant once a week or once a month. But now many
people bring food from outside almost every day. There is home delivery, even
ordering food on mobile apps, so that the desired food can be brought from a
little distance without labor. The balance of calories, proteins and vitamins
that used to be in the daily home food is no longer the same in the outside food.
All in all, with this change in lifestyle, the obesity of children is
increasing.

This problem of ovulation with polycystic ovarian syndrome
in girls increases the risk of infertility in the future. This junk food habit
is largely responsible for this. Not only that, nowadays high risk pregnancy,
miscarriage - all these are increasing due to eating junk food.
Nowadays boys are also obese from a young age. Obesity is on the rise due to addiction to extra outside food, sitting or studying or work, exercise, not doing physical work. In addition to eating junk food, the toxins in junk food are damaging the sperm. Delicate sperm cells reduce the effects of excess temperature, harmful chemicals or toxins, smoking, obesity-reducing drugs, and depression. Again, even if the count is correct, its speed may decrease. From this comes male infertility. There is no doubt that if this disease is not controlled, it will become a question mark in the near future.

Experts say that our eating habits definitely have an effect on the state of mind. What we eat brings our depression levels home or down. In some cases, it brings new fatigue. Studies have shown that people who are depressed are lazy to eat and take extra food as needed. Young boys and girls are not free from its effects. Nowadays, it is often seen that adolescents suffer from high levels of anxiety and depression. One of the reasons is to eat less healthy food like junk food. With the increasing number of fast food outlets and the availability of junk food, our eating habits have changed dramatically. Excess sugar, caffeine and calories are having a detrimental effect on the body and making it harder to feel energized and excited about life. Adolescents have to fight against the growing anxiety and depression in order to stay focused on the future, get motivated to work and concentrate on work by removing the ill effects of such influencers. It is seen that even the meritorious students are not getting the expected results in the exams or other fields.
Unable to cope with the growing pressure of depression, many
have resorted to suicide. As a result of our eating habits, the body becomes
fat and thin. There is a difference between nutrition and malnutrition in the
body. All of this is directly or indirectly related to depression.
There are many things in the junk food list from which our
body does not get the nutrients it needs. As a result, this type of food has
adverse effects on the body. Brings various killing disorders. The two most
common of these disorders are high cholesterol and high blood pressure. In
English it is called high-blood pressure. Its prevalence is increasing day by
day. Young people are not getting rid of it. Almost all of us know that these
two symptoms also have the potential to jeopardize human life. Patients with
high blood pressure can have a cerebral attack at any moment. Elevated
cholesterol levels increase the risk of heart attack many times over. As a
result, in many cases the patient is paralyzed. The mouthpiece goes away.
Normal life is ruined and you have to spend your days in bed helplessly like an
inanimate object. The patient and his family continue to suffer in hell.
Mentally and physically disturbed life became unbearable.
Another side effect of junk food that comes to mind is
diabetes. The disease is now epidemic all over the world. The number of
patients suffering from this disease is increasing day by day. Since this
disease is called 'Silent Killer', it is easy to guess that it can cause some
problems in a person's life. The patient's performance decreases. Decreased
vision. Just what! After a while, all the organs of the body gradually start to
cripple. The patient and his family spend their days in extreme anxiety,
financial stress, and fear of death. This disease can completely destroy a
happy family. The most worrying thing is that young people are also getting the
disease nowadays. As a result, the basic structure of a nation is crumbling
before it can be formed. It is a thunder signal for the whole of human
civilization.

One of the main causes of cancer, which is being studied day
and night around the world, is the dependence on junk food in the modernlifestyle. In our daily busy lives we are running behind time. There is no time
for yourself, or for anyone else in the family. As a result, I am choosing
quick and delicious junk food as the easily available way. Nowadays, if you go
to small and big shopping malls, you can see that there are various instant or
processed foods in the outer packets. Packets of captive noodles, upma, poha,
soup, parota, singara, salty, etc. are available as well as main course meals
like dal fry and shahi paneer. As soon as you come home and heat it in the
microwave, the great food that brings water to the tongue is reaching the
plate. Although each packet clearly states what preservatives are given and how
long the food should be used. Despite knowing all the side effects of these
foods, we eat them like addicts. As a result, more or less our heart, liver,
kidneys, stomach - all these organs are being damaged.
So not fast food, we have to go back to the old way, the way
our ancestors stayed healthy by eating home made food. We need to be healthy,
functional and have good health for our next generation. If you divide the time
by calculating a little, you can find time to make food at home. Nowadays there
are ample opportunities to learn how to make a variety of quick meals in
different cooking classes or on TV shows. We love ourselves the most and love
our lives. So for a healthy and long life you have to get rid of the infallible
handful of junk food. The current generation is obsessed with Chinese and
Italian food. Excess of this cheese and flour should be kept out of the diet.
They need to be taught how to efficiently divide time in an effort to stay
healthy. They need to understand that modernity means finding a better way to
live. It is not modernity to deliberately push ourselves and the entire human
civilization to the brink of destruction.
