While junk food is not generally advocated, it does have some "advantages" in the short term:

First of all, in terms of mood, junk food can bring pleasure. Junk food high in sugar and fat, such as chocolate, potato chips, etc., can stimulate the brain to release dopamine, which makes people feel satisfied and happy after eating, helping to relieve stress and bad mood.

Secondly, in terms of energy supplement, junk food can quickly replenish energy. Candy, energy drinks, etc. contain a lot of sugar, the body can quickly absorb these sugars, provide energy for the body in a short period of time, in an emergency situation (such as low blood sugar or urgent physical work to complete a certain task) can temporarily boost energy, let people rejuvenate.

However, these "advantages" are only temporary and do not mask the potential health hazards of junk food.
