CHINESE MEALS
BETTER
THAN
WESTERN FAST
FOOD
Western fast food
is
so popu-
lar mainly through
its
well-planned
salesmanship; kids are also their
very successful
target.
However,
fast food
is
too
oily,
salty
and too
sweet;
vegetables
are scanty. Such
high
protein,
high fat
and
high
calo-
rie food
leads
to
obesity,
high
cholesterol,
atherosclerosis
(hardening)
of
blood
vessels,
coronaries, strokes and
diabetes.
Thus, fast foods are
sometimes
appropriately referred
to
as "unk
food". The
worst
is
that
such food
may well
contain
excesgive quan-
tities of "trans" fatty acids (as a
re-
sult of hydrogenation
of
the
natu-
ral "cis"
fatty
acids. The trans fat
increases
the
"bad cholesterol"
(LDL) and
the
risk
of
coronaries
and stroke
is
increased. ln
fact,
even the beverages (forming
part
of the
"meal package")
are
too
sweet and obesity may well
result.
Moreover, acrylamide
(that
causes
cancer
in
animals and
is
"probably
carcinogenic to
humans")
may
be
produced when deep
fryihg
the
chips. On the other hand, Chinese
meals are much more
balanced
and
matched for
various
ingredi-
ents of
the
meal. The Calories
of
Chinese meals
are also
not
excessive.
Let
the fast food chains
continue
with
their marketing
"V
we
know better what to take!
