Name & class :

JUNK FOOD
Sweets, soft drink, French fries, ice cream, and hamburgers, hot dogs and other kinds
of take-away food are called junk food.
What is wrong with junk food?
Too much fat! Junk foods such as hamburgers, pizza, fried chicken and chips usually contain lot of bad fats.
Too much fat will cause people to get obese. Being overweight is a risk to the health of the heart and can cause
other diseases, even cancer.
Too much salt! Junk foods often have too much salt. There's a lot of salt already in foods such as bread,
breakfast cereals and biscuits and cakes. So people get more salt than they need when they eat junk food.
Too much sugar! Soft drinks, biscuits, cakes and sweets all have very much sugar. That's what makes them
taste so good! But too much sugar makes people fat, spoils the teeth, is bad for the blood and may cause other
diseases.
Should people eat junk food?
It is probably OK to eat junk food sometimes! But people should look for foods that are low in fats and salt
and sugar.
