Please help to improve the essay formation.

Should the government meddle in our dietary choice? Support your answer with examples.( This prompt got from a practice book.)


Although, eating is a personal choice, It should be restricted by the government. Eating habits play a significant role in a person's life. It reflects on the bhysical body and mental health. The government should interfere in people's diet to control the critical health disease, promote healthy habits and prevent from the unnecessary burden of medication on the economy.


Nowadays, many people are facing several critical health issues due to unhealthy diets. For example, obesity is the major health problem in America and invites many other diseases like diabetes, stress, and heart problems. The main reason of obesity is unhealthy and uncontrolled diet. So, the government should take some serious steps for the better future of society.


Moreover, poor eating habits make people sick. The government should provide a healthy environment to encourage the people for healthy life. It should start from the beginning that is inside the body because what we eat, drink and inhale reflect on our health. To control the unhealthy food can be a stepping stone for the food industry, but it worths for people's health.


Consequently, people spend lots of money on unnecessary and unhealthy food which make them sick. Later,the government has to spend a lot of money on medications which burden the government and the economy. Those money can be used in progress and development. Unhealthy people cannot contribute in the progress of the nation, but keep disturbing the budget of family and country as well. Besides, healthy people develop healthy nation.


In conclusion, the control of the government on food will not only promote a healthy and progressive society but strengthen the economy and the development of the country.

You've killed the whole essay by doing that. Do you remember from your previous thread(s) what we said about how to structure an essay? Try to write a better introduction than that.

Nowadays, many people [STRIKE]are facing several critical[/STRIKE] suffer from various health issues due to their unhealthy diets. For example, obesity is [STRIKE]the[/STRIKE] a major health problem in [STRIKE]America[/STRIKE] many countries in the world, and [STRIKE]invites[/STRIKE] it is often a cause of many [STRIKE]other[/STRIKE] diseases like diabetes, strokes, [STRIKE]stress,[/STRIKE] and heart problems.

That's poorly written. And in any case, how is it different from (what does it add to) the previous paragraph? Try to come up with another (different) point.

Later, the government has to spend a lot of money on medications which burden the government and the economy.

In conclusion, the [STRIKE]control[/STRIKE] regulation of people's eating habits by the government [STRIKE]on food[/STRIKE] will not only promote a healthy and progressive society, but also strengthen the economy and aid the development of the country.

No, that's not how to structure or write a good introduction.

In the introduction, you need:
- A general statement: This introduces the topic/issue to the reader. In your case the topic is eating habits or diets.
- Background: 1 or 2 sentences to elaborate on the topic.
- Statement of issue: talk about the issue which in this case is government involvement in restricting diets.
- Your thesis/purpose statement: states your position regarding the essay question.

I wouldn't say that "diet" is a necessity. "Food" is a necessity.
