Are ‘Healthy’ Fast Foods Really That Healthy?

Filed Under (Food, Health) by Isabel on 08-16-2007


Do you think by having a salad at McDonald’s that you’re doing something good for your heart? Think again. A study shows that whether you order a healthy meal of a veggie burger, orange juice and a side salad, or whether you go all out on a regular burger, soda and fries, your body’s markers for cardiovascular disease are adversely affected. These findings surprised the researchers who discovered them, as they had originally set out to prove that heart-healthy fast food meals were available.

The moral of the story isn’t that you might as well eat what you want considering everything is poor for you, rather, you should stay away from fast food joints all together if you can. It’s hard to do, but best for your body. What do you think?
