The younger
lot especially teen students and the office crowd are very fond of eateries
like Pizzas and Burgers. Eating out has been a major reason for obesity and
Diabetes today. If you ask why then here is the answer
20 years
back the delicacies and savories were in a smaller share. And now the portions
of food stuffs have grown to large and extra large paving way for metabolic
disorders like the above.
Let’s
have a look at the changes of quantity of food.
- 20 years back a plate of Pizza was about 200 calories and now it’s more than 600 calories because of extravagant dipping, double layered cheese and processed super spicy way.
- Sodas and energy drinks contained only 50 calories before. now with artificial sweeteners and increased soda content it is up to 250 calories
- Baked buns and Muffins were 210 calories and now with additional chocolate syrups, layered creams and toppings, the calories have reached to 500.
- A cup of coffee counted only 25 calories along with milk. Now it is around 350 calories due to whipped cream and strong caffeine.
- Burgers are all time favorites which were 300 calories. Now a Big Burger measures 500 calories due to extra cheese gratings and mayonnaise.
- A bucket of French fries has outsized from regular, to large and extra large
Counting on
your calories is very crucial at this stage when the rate of mortality due to
Diabetes is mounting like any thing.
It is fancy to buy something large for a little more money but your health
keeps warning you for the blunder you would be doing.
