THE UNHEALTHY FAST FOOD

Fast food nowadays is considered a normal eating venture. People are not just eating out on
special occasions or weekends anymore. It means that all the time they mostly eat fast foods.
However is fast food good for health?

everywhere. With the compelling rise in fast-food restaurants since the 1940’s, oddly it started
the rise in obesity and cancer during that same time period.

fast food products are made with highly-processed ingredients to give it shelf-life, to hold
consistency, and to enhance flavor. Fast food is altered from its original healthy form.
It is not the calories in fast food which damage health and waistline. It is the chemical additives
such as aspartame and MSG (monosodium glutamate). Studies show that the chemical
additives lead to weight and disease issues.
So, there is absolutely nothing nutritional about fast food. Fast food simply feeds hunger and
craving.
