Sometimes that seemingly innocent food may be loaded with dangerous substances that are very bad for your health
When we talk about food products, it is natural to think of practicality, taste and that quick snack in the middle of the rush of the day.
But not everything on the market shelves is safe or healthy.
In fact, some of these products may be true villains for your health.
And the worst: they are present in the daily lives of many people.
6 products you should never consume (can be very dangerous)
1.
Sausage is one of the most consumed products in Brazil, especially by children.
However, it is far from being a healthy option.
Made with remains of meat, fat, excess salt, dyes and preservatives such as sodium nitrite, this food can increase the risk of cancer in the gut, according to studies by the World Health Organization (WHO).
In addition, it is extremely processed, with low nutritional value. Its frequent consumption can overload the liver and kidneys.
Avoid as much as possible and, if possible, replace with more natural proteins such as eggs or grilled chicken.
2. Package snacks
Colorful, crispy and full of artificial flavor, package snacks are a real danger.
These ultra -processed products are rich in trans fat, sodium and chemical additives.
They are addictive and cause inflammation in the body.
They do not really feed. On the contrary, they deceive the stomach and increase the risk of diseases such as hypertension and high cholesterol.
In addition, they can affect the behavior of children, making them more agitated and with difficulties in concentration.
3. Instant noodles
Fast, cheap and easy to prepare. But the price for health is high.
Instant noodles are one of the poorest nutrient products that exist.
It is full of sodium, saturated fat and additives that hurt the body.
Most versions contain more than 1,500 mg of sodium per serving.
This is almost the recommended daily limit for an adult! Excessive consumption can cause fluid retention, high blood pressure and cardiovascular problems.
4.
Potato chips, pastries, drumstick… are delicious, but dangerous.
Frying comes on the list of products you should avoid mainly because they accumulate saturated fat and, in many cases, trans fat.
These fats are the main enemies of the heart.
In addition, the oil used in fried food is often reused, generating toxic substances such as acrolein.
Frequent consumption can lead to increased bad cholesterol, liver problems and even cancer development.
5. Soda and sugary drink
Soda, box juice, industrialized teas… All these products are full of sugar, dyes and acidulants.
A glass of soda may contain the equivalent of 7 spoons of sugar.
These drinks do not really kill their thirst, do not nourish and still overload the pancreas, increasing the risk of type 2 diabetes.
The acidity of the soda also impairs teeth enamel and can cause gastritis.
6. Stuffed cracker
Who has never taken a stuffed cookie? But this is one of the most dangerous products for health, especially children.
They are full of sugar, hydrogenated fat and artificial dyes.
In addition to not providing any important nutrients, they contribute to weight gain, increased triglycerides and risk of diabetes.
Not to mention preservatives that alter metabolism and intestinal functioning.
