Marketing plays a significant role in shaping children’s food choices, utilizing strategies that appeal to their emotions and preferences. Advertisements often target young audiences using colorful packaging, catchy jingles, and popular characters, making unhealthy options seem more attractive. Exposure to these marketing practices is linked to increased consumption of sugary snacks and fast food. Additionally, the prevalence of marketing on platforms favored by children, such as television and social media, reinforces unhealthy eating habits. Addressing these influences through regulations and education can help promote healthier choices among youth.
