Point- A lot of Singaporeans deal with health issues
Evidence- A vast majority of Singaporeans consume a lot of sugar on a daily basis, of about 58 grams. Because of which the prevalence of high blood pressure and high cholesterol has risen from 19.8 to 35.5 and 26.2 to 39.1 respectively.
Elaborate- Because of high sugar consumption levels, the Singaporean government is concerned about our health as it can lead to high demand for healthcare. Eventually, there would be less manpower to look after these patients, overworking the available staff.
Link- Therefore, the Singaporean government is concerned about our health as it would not only affect the patients but also the staff.

Point- Singapore has a growing aging population and elderly are more prone to health issues

Evidence- 1 in 7 people are elderly in Singapore, and is expected to rise up to 1 in 5 people by year 2030. As people age, they are more likely to experience several conditions at the same time. Older age is also characterized by the emergence of several complex health states commonly called geriatric syndromes. In Singapore, 37 percent of elderly respondents reported three or more chronic health conditions in 2017, up from 19.8 percent in a 2009 study.

1) Athletes get paid a large sum of money for winning medals in the Olympics. When they work hard and give their best in the competition and win a medal, they would get different amounts of money. The gold medal would get the most amount compared to the silver and bronze medal. The athletes would not get any money just by participating. Hence, since they have been training days, weeks, months, or even years, if they do not win anything back to their country, their hard work would go to waste. For example, Quan Hongchan, who won gold medal in Tokyo Olympics 2020 for the women's diving 10m platform. She won a total of $1 million USD and she used the money to cure her mother's sickness. During her interview, she said that one of the reason she wanted to win was to get the prize money for her mother. Thus, winning a medal and getting the prize money is one of the main reason why athletes work so hard for the competitions.

diet is one of the most important things that can easily affect our health and performance. when your not getting the proper nutrients you need, you wont have enough vitamins to gain energy so you wont have energy and you will feel tired all the time and cant concentrate. for example, if you eat burgers and fries, you wont have enough vitamins and nutrients from vegetables and healthy fats to give you energy. if you eat unhealthy food, you will have heart problems and the energy is not enough to concentrate well and perform well. This way, diet is very important for your performance and you need to have the proper food choices to get the proper nutrients.

1. You cannot trust everything you view online as people may take drugs and dope so that they can become stronger and faster.

2.There are many side effects however. When people take drugs and dope, they can get like a strength boost or speed boost to win. They can also take drugs or anything to just get a strength boost.

example many online sources have vested interests such as promoting specific products rather than priotizing factual infomation.

RESPONSIBILITY and RESPECT

Responsibility is an important value for a sportsman. There are many body-enhancing drugs that athletes can take and steroids is one of them.

Athletes need to be responsible when they are introduced to drugs and the value responsibility helps athletes to make a decision either to take drugs or not to take drugs, not taking drugs that enhance your performance to keep the game fair

Respect is another important value where athletes need to have in order to keep the game fair

Respect is an important value as it makes the game more fun and inclusive for people of all races. It would not cause bad blood between competitors.

2) The reason why athletes go great lengths to win a medal is because, if they win a medal, they would make a great impact on the world. They would bring pride to their country and themselves. Winning a medal will make everyone around the world know them. This would make them have more fame, meaning that they would have more opportunities for their future. For example, more brands will approach them for advertisements for their brands to bring more fame to the brands since the athletes is well-known after winning the medal. Like Joseph Schooling, after he won the medal, the brand Milo approached him to be the ambassador of their brand. This made more people want to buy Milo due to Joseph Schooling being the ambassador and supporting the brand. This increased the sales of Milo and the people who buys the Milo will get to know him if they do not yet. Hence, athletes also go great length s to win a medal so that more brands would approach them and they can get more well-known by the world.

Link- The government is concerned due to the rise of elderly in Singapore, even more so with many of them suffering from diseases and poor health condition. Due to this, the government is more concerned about our health than they were in the past.

Good nutrition can enhance sporting performance. A well-planned, nutritious diet should meet most of an athlete's vitamin and mineral needs, and provide enough protein to promote muscle growth and repair. Foods rich in unrefined carbohydrates, like wholegrain breads and cereals, should form the basis of the diet.

Oils and spreads (fats) are a source of energy and provide essential fatty acids that the body can't make itself. However, eating too much fat can cause weight gain, because foods high in fat are also high in energy (calories). this means that if we consume too much fatty food instead of watching our diet, it can lead to weight gain and make our performance and health worse.
