What is Junk Food?
Junk food
is the one that is produced for its appealing taste
rather than for its health value. People eat such food for fun and its looks, but such
food is
not good
for the body.
It often
contains chemicals that make the taste nice, but are unhealthy. Foods
like chips,
burgers,
crisps,
cakes and
biscuits are
high in
fats,
while sweets
and aereated
drinks like cola
and lemonade are high in sugar.
Eating a
large amount of fat makes us build up fatty tissues in the body,
while excessive
sugar can damage our teeth and skin. Junk food generally lacks
the vitamins
and minerals we need.
Junk food
can be enjoyed sometimes, but our body requires a healthy
balance of
nutrients from freshly prepared foods.
