Theoretical Framework

This section presents the theories formulated to explain, predict and understand phenomena and,
in many cases, to challenge and extend existing knowledge within the limits of critical bounding
assumptions. It is also introduces and describes the theory that explain why the research problem under
study exists.

Fast foods have a lot of effects on the general health of a student. They affect your productivity in
school, make you gain unhealthy weight, and badly affect your skin. There is so much that you can avoid
by simply having healthy meals. The above effects can hopefully sensitize you to the effects of fast foods
on your lives and show why you need to avoid eating them. (TeamPainAssist 2022)

According to this article, eating at fast food establishments might have a lot of harmful impacts on the
body, particularly for students. Some people choose to eat at fast food establishments, many of whom
are students. However, a lot of people are unaware that cooking their own meals can save them money
and, more importantly, will ensure that what they eat is healthy. Because of the negative consequences
that dining at restaurants may have on you and the food you consume there, this article also encourages
you to avoid doing so.

The popularity of fast foods is increasing, as reflected by the growing fast food industry. This is because
of the convenience that comes with buying fast foods. Most campuses are surrounded by fast-food
restaurants as most students prefer fast food to home-cooked food. There have been debates on the
effects that fast foods have on on-campus students. This paper will explain the gains and drawbacks of
fast foods on campus.

The most obvious advantage is that fast food help to save time. Time is one of the most valuable assets
to focus on students. Having meals in between classes is made possible with the availability of fast food.
After a busy day in school, students are able to get ready food without much hustle. Although fresh food
is healthier than fast food, a burger or pizza will be a stroke of luck after a tiresome day in school.

To prepare fresh food, one has to shop for ingredients, cook, and wash the utensils, which are time-
consuming for a busy student who might be having assignments or notes to read. Apart from saving
time, fast food helps in cutting costs. The cost of some fast foods like burgers is relatively cheap hence
affordable to students. Most fast foods are also healthy, for example, salads, lean meat, wheat bread,
boiled food, fruit juice, and low-fat milk.

Fast food has some negative impact on on-campus students, one of them being on their health. Fast
food contains a large amount s of calories, salt, and fats, which is a threat to a student’s life. These fats
accumulate in the body and result in obesity, high blood pressure, and heart diseases. Most students
also tend to make eating fast food a habit that they cannot do without. This, in turn, makes the students
lazy to cook fresh food even when they have time. They are also unable to adopt a home cooking culture
in the future when they get families.
In conclusion, fast food is a modern technique that facilitates ready food when most needed. It is
necessary for students to take into consideration their gains and drawbacks to ensure an effective
lifestyle. (IvyPanda/Walker 2021)

According to this article, many students eat at fastfood restaurants to help them to save their time
instead of making fresh food for them that might occupy a lot of their time. For some students it is more
convenient to eat at fastfoods restaurants instead of cooking their own food because at fastfood
restaurant you will just eat there but if you cooked your own food it is so many hassles like you will buy
ingredients, wash utensils and you will need to wait for your food to be cooked. Students dine at fast
food outlets for the same reason.
