In today’s world of fast life and shortage of time, fast/ junk food consumption is on the rise. Most of these foods have extremely high amounts of fats, especially trans fats and saturated fats, sugar as well as salt, are made using refined flour and are low nutritional value, and hence, their consumption does not make us feel satiated or content. Instead gorging too much on them makes us crave more food and liquids. And so the eating chain continues! For example, a 300ml bottle of aerated drink or cola contains 40grams of sugar! That is 20 spoons!! Having so much sugar in our blood will cause the insulin to store it as fat, and then we feel the need for more sugar. The more you have, the more you want. And then we get addicted to junk food. 

These foods negatively affect us. It not only leads to problems like hyperactivity, high blood pressure, obesity, diabetes, but also cancer, osteoporosis, PCOD/PCOS, kidney stones and so many more complications. 

We all like to gorge on burgers, pizzas, fries, and samosas, kachoris as well as noodles once in a while. Today we’ll see how we can make it healthier, so instead we eating junk, we eat healthy!
