Food


There are many types of eating habits around the world. It’s important to understand what our eating habits are to avoid health problems. Meals in our lives are very important because they acquire nutrition and healthy eating is important for good health.  Food includes a set of voluntary and conscious acts that are aimed at choice, preparation, and ingestion of food. We serve three meals a day and consume their daily six nutrients to build and maintain healthy bodily functions that are what the body needs.

There are many types of foods including fast foods, but they are the worst for our health. Most people often only eat these foods and that's where the different diseases. Fast foods are made with ingredients formulated to achieve a certain flavor or consistency and to preserve freshness. This requires a high degree of food engineering, the use of additives and processing techniques alter substantially this food and reduce its nutritional value. This makes the famous junk food are bad for our body.


Fast food contains high levels of fat, salt, spices or sugars that stimulate the appetite and thirst. This has a strong commercial interest for restaurants that provide that type of food for every day consumption. Usually most young people are those who consume these products yet they will suffer diseases related to blood, obesity, diabetes and cholesterol. The eating habits we have acquired over time have become a habit that endangers health. Some junk foods most consumed are hamburgers, pizza, potatoes fried, fried chicken, and soft drinks, among others.


Usually fast foods taste good, are cheap, and can be eaten in minutes. Fast food causes an addiction so strong that it can only be compared to addiction to snuff or drugs because people consume every day chelates three times a day. Digestion in general becomes heavier and the first problems may cause bad digestion and gas that eventually degenerate into gastritis or cancer.


It would be interesting to all people, especially those with young children to be aware of the irreversible consequences produced by this way of eating. Sometimes, everyday life prevents us to pause a moment and reflect on events that seriously undermine our health. 
But, it's worth it making an effort to change those customs contrary to our well being. Eating these foods daily can seriously affect our health, but if we reduce it gradually to once a week or once a month and eat more fruits, vegetables and natural water, we have better health and care for our lives.
