Fast food is widely knowns in most populated countries. Now, fast food has become part of urban people's life because it offers a delicious quick-meal at a small price. However, consuming fast food such as hot dog, hamburger, fried chicken, soft drink, and many others may frequently cause several bad impacts on your health. In many countries, dieticians often emphasize the dangers of consuming too much fast food. Fast food is high ini in calories but they come from unhealthy fat and added sugars. Therefore, the food provides few nutrients. The imbalanced content from this kind of food may trigger various diseases. Obesity is one of the most possible impacts of consuming too much fast food. Besides, it can also increase the risk of hypertension, heart attack, as well as diabetes. A study showed that children who consumed a lot fast food had lower IQ than children who ate less fast food. Although the difference was subtle, the study proved that fast food that children consumed at the age between 6 and 24 months gave a small but significant effect on their IQ when they reached 8 years old. In addition, most fast food meals have the artificial additives and sweetener to maintain their texture consistency, to give them longer shelf-life, and also to enhance the flavor. These subtances contribute to the good taste of fast food. Pregnant women should also avoid eating fast food. Eating such food is not only bad for the mother herself but also for the baby. The baby will be so vulnerable to hypertension and diabetes. Therefore, we should consult a doctor before consuming fast food. The cause is the preservatives in fast food that are harmful to both mother and her baby. Moreover, a number of studies in China have found that the rate of breast cancer among women has risen due to the consumption of fast food.

In the highlands of Northern Thailand, there was once a truly isolated tribe They are known and famously called as phi (spirit/ghost) They lived deep in the forest, completely isolated from outsiders ..... And they leave behind their "windscreens" made of bana leaves. These people call themselves Miaq Briq or Mlabri which means " forest human being in the Austroasiatic group of languages. They are one of the smallest ethnic groups in the world. For many years, the Mlabri were scattered throughout the forests, existing as nomadic hunter - gatherers. They hunted wild animals by spear and hand-spade and gathered wild plants and fruits. Due to their traditional subsistence through hunting and gathering, the Mlabri are often considered "living fossils" -but this is an inaccurate characterisation. A recent genetic study found that the Mlabri were established about 500 to 800 years ago, from a very small number of individuals who engaged in agriculture. Over three decades, significant social changes have taken place within the community, as a result of large-scale deforestation, which occurred at the end of World War II, along with a state-led policy, which has been conducted since the mid-1980s. Today, they lead sedentary lives, engaging in wage labour, cash crop cultivation, and ethnic tourism. One could ask: How much would the world change without the Mlabri? An example will suffice to answer this question. The word " jealousy " does not exist in their language, which is to say that they have never been envious of others. Yet today, this is no longer the case. As they are integrated into That society under the banner of development, young Mlabri in particular have begun to understand the modern world and have started to express this feeling. They now have a measure to compare themselves with others. Thus, some Mlabri youths, aware that they are disadvantaged in all possible ways, are finding it increasingly difficult to see their position within Thai society in a positive light.
