Nowadays, sugar consumption has become a concerning issue that affects the health of people and may cause various disorders. It is argued by some that if the cost of sweet products were made higher, people may tend to consume less sugar. I completely agree with this opinion and I will state the reasons for my view.
To begin with, sweets make people feel happier and satisfied rapidly, and accessing them is effortless and inexpensive. Individuals not have enough time even to eat healthy foods because of hectic workdays. So they may prefer snacks to have more time to do other things. However, people may become addicted easily and desire more every time they had these products. Thus, if they are easily accessible, consumption can increase and this may have many drawbacks for human health.
In addition, even the cost of manufacturing packaged products is lower than natural products, food companies has to think about the generations to come and people’s wellness.
To find the solution completely about decreasing sugar consumption, the sugar cost should be more expensive as an ingredient of products so the companies may use less sugar. Following that, the product costs get higher and people go toward to eat less sweet foods.
