Fast food is the term given to food that can be prepared and served very quickly. While any meal with low preparation time can be considered to be fast food, typically the term refers to food sold in a restaurant or store with preheated or pre*****d ingredients and served to the customer in a packaged form for take-out/take-away.
Fast foods have become increasingly popular among adults and teens. The reason why people eat more fast food is because of increasing work hours and not finding time for a home *****d meal. Another reason people eat more fast food is because there are so many tasty choices to choose from. In addition, it looks attractive .
Fast food has had a negative impact on people of all ages, especially children, as it has been linked to serious health problems ranging from obesity to diabetes.
Obesity is caused by eating more calories than the body burns. Fast foods are notoriously high in calories and fat, and the consumption of fast food is linked to obesity. A burger from one popular fast food chain, for instance, contains 670 calories and 39g of fat, which is considered high in calories and almost at the daily recommended amount of fat (40g) per person, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidelines.
The high fat and cholesterol in most fast foods have been linked to a variety of heart problems, including high blood pressure, heart disease, high cholesterol, strokes and heart attacks. Children who are overweight are more prone to having high blood pressure, which is a dangerous condition with no symptoms that can lead to heart disease if left untreated. High cholesterol, which is caused by too much fat buildup in the arteries, also has no symptoms, and can result in stroke if untreated.
Diabetes is a ****bolism disorder that is characterized by insulin problems, which results in an inability to break down sugar in the body. Eating too much sugar is a contributing factor to developing diabetes. Many fast food items are high in sugar, some containing more than the recommended daily amount in just one food item. All of the sweet snacks, fruit-flavored snacks and ******s were found lacking in nutrients. Many of these foods are high in sugar, which increases the risk of childhood diabetes.
If you are looking for ways to cut down on some of the calories and extra fat in many fast food options, try some of the tips listed below.
Don't order the biggest sizes. While it may seem like a bargain to super-size your order, it is no bargain for your health. The largest sizes have the most fat, calories, sugar and sodium, and you will probably be just as satisfied with a smaller portion. Sugar soda is full of sugar and calories, but it does not fill you up. It is important to stay hydrated, but make a smarter choice and select skim or low-fat milk, fruit juice, diet soda or water.
Sauces such as mayonnaise, tartar sauce, some spreads or salad dressing can add loads of extra fat and calories where you might not need them, as can cheese, sour cream and "special" sauces. Order a sandwich without the condiments, or ask for them on the side so you can add your own. Most places give you more salad dressing than you need, so add it yourself and don't use the whole packet . Salads are a healthy option, especially with a healthier dressing.
Generally, fried foods are not the best choice. Choose items that are labeled as grilled or baked. Go for the kids menu. The portions are smaller, and you can usually make substitutions. Another option is to bring half of what you order home to eat later instead of all in one sitting. Choose from the items labeled as "healthy" or "light." Most places now offer special sections on their menu.
Healthy eating is not about strict nutrition philosophies, staying unrealistically thin, or depriving yourself of the foods you love. Rather, it’s about feeling great, having more energy, stabilizing your mood, and keeping yourself as healthy as possible– all of which can be achieved by learning some nutrition basics and using them in a way that works for you. You can expand your range of healthy food choices and learn how to plan ahead to create and maintain a tasty, healthy diet.
