1. Potato Chips- Long known for its salty yumminess and bad nutrition, these are found in almost every American household. The oil these are fried in are filled with omega 3 fatty acids, that block mood enhancing omega 3 acid.
2. Ham- The factories where ham comes from fill their pigs with antibiotics. The hams are also filled with sugar, salt, fillers, and nitrate preservatives which can trigger low moods and migranes.
3. Soda- Pretty much everyone drinks these, dispite the negative effects. The average American drinks about 600 sodas a year! Sodas become fat in our bodies and turn our mood from good to bad (because of the sugar intake)
4. Margerine- Filled with industrial fats, it can tamper with insulin levels. It is also known as a fake food. Pasturized butter is alot better than this.
5. Bagels- Who doesn't love bagels? Warm, soft, topped with cream cheese, it makes a filling breakfast. One bagel is also equal to approximately five slices of bread. These are packed with refined carbs, and turn your happy mood around right before lunchtime. Also, in the last decade, companies have been enlarging the bagel.
6. Packaged salty peanuts- These contains artificial flavoring, monosodium glutamate, which is linked to migranes, weakness, and difficulty in breathing for some people.
7. Sweet potatoes- Contains high blood sugar which age our blood vessels, shrink our brain, and damage vision and nerve functions. It also increases our risk for Alzheimer's disease and depression.
I feel like we shouldn't stop eating the foods listed above completely, but eat them according to serving size and limit the ones containing high fat, sugar, or carbs. This way, you can maintain a healthy lifestyle and still eat the foods you like.
No wonder why i'm so moody, all i ever drink is soda. Lol
ReplyDeleteI think I speak for everyone when I say that even though it's unhealthy we all like to eat the foods you just said were bad but it's alright if you eat it once in a while not every other day...
ReplyDeleteI should really stop eating chips and stop drinking soda because they are really unhealthy. Even though I don't drink soda that much but chips I should really stop.
ReplyDeleteBeing full blooded Portuguese,all I really eat is bread, cheese, and meat, which happen to not be on this blog post. Good or bad thing? I do not know lol.
ReplyDeleteI think what people eat will really get them into the mood of what they want to do. Even though nutrients count for a lot, I think the taste is really what gets people going.
ReplyDeleteThings need to be eaten in moderation. Peanuts can be good if you only eat a little. Things like that. Except soda. Soda is bad.
