Fastfood can potentially Kill Us!

[eann014]

We all know that fast food is addictive even though we know that it may potentially harm our body. Most of us just don't care about its negative impact on our health, all we care about is eating what is delicious that's why there are many people who are obese and is struggling with their health conditions. There are two potential threats to a person eating fast food every single day, and that is Diabetes and Heart disease. In the US according to Mary Kekatos from Dailymail, half of all deaths due to heart disease and diabetes are caused by a poor diet, which consists of heavy intake of sodium and unprocessed meats.

Why do You think people still eat these foods everyday? What can You suggest them to do to quit this addiction to fast food? Are You one of those people who are always eating fast food?

That's true, I am also addictive into fast food and unprocessed meats. We're eating at the fast food often than to cooked because we are also busy with our everyday activities and duties. That's why sometimes we don't have enough time to cook because we are already hungry especially at dinner.

IT will kill you if you consume everyday.

There is a very good book on this topic, representing a systematic review of 15 years of nutritional research:

How Not to Die by Dr Michael Greger

highly recommended if you are interested in health effects of foods.

I agree eating fastfood once in a while will not have health wise ramifications to the person but the frequent eating will definitely cause obesity and we all know what happens when that happens. Fastfood has been killing but due to the fact that we are living in a fast paced world, people don't seem to mind at all.

I don't think it's fast food per se that is dangerous. What's concerning is the fact that people eat it at breakfast, lunch and dinner, without anything else. You can eat at a fast food once a week without any problem, but you need to have a balanced diet for the rest of the week. It's easy to attribute responsability like that, making fast food the scapegoat.

The truth is that people are too lazy when it comes to nutrition. Instead of making lunch at home using fresh ingredients they prefer going to mcdonalds, spend twice as much and damage their body. They choose the immediate pleasure of eating a cheeseburger over their own health.

Most people get addicted because they don't have enough willpower, they believe they can't change the way they are until something really critic happens, but that might be already too late.

We should teach the importance of vegetables, because it's obvious that people are clueless about how their own body functions. Other than that, we can't really do much to change people's habits. If a person is obese, assuming he doesn't suffer from any kind of condition, the issue lies way deeper that fast food. The issue is the complete lack of self-respect. Sometimes I get a bit angry when I see over-weight people complain about their situation because I can't help but imagine how many years of self-hatred brought there, and at no point in this period of time they considered about changing their life for the better. They didn't have the willpower to change their life so now they complain to others about it and demand special treatment.

Fast food is terrible.

I used to consume fast food three times a day, for more than 10 years. I no longer do that, but I am still alive. So please stop your FUD and concentrate on more dangerous stuff such as drugs, alcohol and tobacco. It is laughable that the resources which should be used to fight alcoholism and drug abuse are being diverted for this silly issue.

[jayes]

May or may be not. Man knows what is good and best food to take and foods which are not good for health. If carelessness in taking all available foods then not only potentially but surely kill us.

[Kenny94]

I really like fast food, but that is very bad for health. Fast food causes many problems in organism.

[gunhell16]

I think, you are right. Fast food kills us, but it also has some pluses like price and taste. All kills us, but nobody doesn't think about it

all the carbs we take there are really scary to our health in addition that those ingredients are frozen and not fresh,
I've been around of some restaurants too they are not looking for fresh once they are already established and turning their health promotion into much cheaper meat and poultry which are frozen even on seafoods.

Yes,i agree.. Fastfoods are harmful to your body if it becomes your daily routine in life. Because fastfoods have preservatives that contain harmful chemicals that can affect your body and could cause different ailments when consume. Thats why it should be eaten not regularly. Or it is best to never eat it at all.

[ROB18]

I think that's true. society develops and people work more. They do not have time to buy food for cooking. Fast food is the best choice. But it is not good for your health. It is not nutritious and has many harmful substances. It will eventually kill you.

Yes, we all knew that fast food is something that contains a lot of bad elements that is unhealthy for our body. We really have to be careful on what we put in our body and fast food is something we need to avoid. Well, we can occasionally have some for a treat.

[salamyman]

Only potentially? Wake up and smell the roses.
Studies say that sugar is more addictive than heroin.
Salt and fat literally kill your heart and internal organs.
Should I mention also the lack of exercise? Funniest are people that take the car to the gym and go up on automatic stairs.

Fast food really has a bad effect on our health. But if eat him not so much, then you can do without significant illnesses.

[ishel_d_r]

The main reason of cause of cancers are fast foods. Because of fast foods billions of people die every year. To prevent cancers and other things we should take care about our meals. It should be healthy.

[kellysam]

Most fast food that we consume contains preservatives, and these preservatives have adverse effect in our system. Mitigating the rate at which fast food is been consumed is the best for every individual.

[Baton55]

Fast food costs relatively little and tastes good, but the negative effects on physical health last much longer than these immediate concerns. With the high-calorie meals come more fat, cholesterol, salt and sugar -- and therefore fewer vitamins, minerals and other nutrients - than in healthier foods.

Eating a lot of fast food can lead to development of atherosclerosis, diabetes and obesety.The health problems that stem from overweight and obesity alone can severely limit lifestyles and shorten life spans. But nevertheless, fast food plays certain important roles in life, especialy in some “urgent cases”, such as when people need to satisfy the empty stomach temporarily to stop its “cries”.So we can make use of fast food just when we are really busy and lack time.To reduce the potential risks of eating fast food we should  not eat them regularly, lasting several days to reduce the negative effects of fast food on our body.

[Snub]

Yes, maybe. Today, there are many people who are obese. They do not have a measure when they eat a lot of kilograms food. And this leads to bad consequences.

[Bazinga442]

The ingredients used in preparing these fast foods are poisonous to our bodies and the more we accumulate them into our system, overtime the damage would be severe and that can lead to death

[GoGodancer]

It's clear to anyone that fast food is killing us. Therefore, you need to adhere to at least a standard food, and ideally of course a healthy. This is tastier and better
