Junk food TV ads linked to child obesity



Experts say that take out junk food commercial on TV at least during prime time will help to reduce obesity in kids. The present research in the American Journal of Public Health show that the link between advertisements and childhood obesity. Many doctors in India say that the study is highly relevant in the Indian society even though the junk food concept is tremendously different in the country.

In my opinion, I agree with the research because if there are a lot of commercial advertisements during prime time, it will make the children believe on it. Therefore, government should regulate the advertisement.
