AUGUST 4- 6, 2018 – UNHEALTHY FOODS

Is there such a topic: Unhealthy Foods. Of course there are unhealthy foods. These are the simple carbohydrates as bread, pasta, crackers. All foods that contain simple sugars can be considered unhealthy. We know that a dietary lifestyle of simple carbohydrates will lead to diabetes and obesity which are directly linked to heart disease. So how can a sandwich at your local SUBWAY be considered healthy. Recently an article appeared comparing healthy and unhealthy choices are food chains as McDonalds, Starbucks, Subway, and many more.

The healthy choice - according to the article - at SUBWAY

is the six-inch turkey breast sandwich, which contains just 280 calories and 4.3 grams of fat (with one gram of saturated fat, 20 milligrams of cholesterol, and 760 milligrams of sodium) when served on nine-grain wheat bread. Load it up with all the vegetables you want, just stay away from the cheese and creamy dressings. The Veggie Delite, which contains just vegetables, has just 230 calories and 2.5 grams of fat.

I can only say choose wisely at these food chains.

Until tomorrow....
