What is Junk Food?
Junk foods are processed foods consisting of high calories...
Why is it bad for you?... Frequent consumption of junk food increases the intake of excess fat, simple carbohydrates, and processed sugar which may lead to a higher risk of obesity and cardiovascular diseases among other chronic health problems. The resulting obesity may begin clogging up the arteries and lay the basis of an impending heart attack.
It has also been suggested that eating junk food affects the brain in the same way as consuming addictive drugs. An addiction to junk food may even result in rejection of healthier food options like fruits, vegetables, salads etc. leading to further lack of nourishment. How should you really avoid junk food?... According to Dr. Sharma, the red flags that you should look out for and avoid bringing home include trans-fats, refined grains, salt and high fructose corn syrup. Avoid foods that say corn sweetener, corn syrup, corn syrup solids, partially hydrogenated, fractionated, or hydrogenated on their label. So next time you want to know if what's on your plate is junk or not, ask yourself questions:
How many calories am I consuming in this one serving?
What are the healthy nutrients I am taking in with this meal?
What's the quality of ingredients used and how fresh is this food?
If you are someone who eat a doses of junk food daily and having a hard time quitting... Take note that quitting junk food is a gradual process...
