Abstract The rising consumption of junk food among adolescents has become a pressing public health concern globally. Junk food, characterized by high caloric content and low nutritional value, poses significant health risks, including obesity, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and other metabolic disorders [1]. Adolescents, a critical age group for physical and cognitive development, are particularly susceptible to the adverse effects of poor dietary choices. The easy availability, affordability, and aggressive marketing of junk food have contributed to its widespread consumption, often replacing nutrient-rich diets essential for optimal growth and well-being [2].
Keywords junk food, effectiveness, planned teaching program, knowledge, hazards, age group of 11-16 years.
