Calories Table in Fast food. Risk of Obesity
Fast Food – Risk of Obesity!
The key findings:
- Whites who eat fast food twice or more a week have a 50 percent greater risk of obesity than do those who eat this way once or less.
- Their risk of abnormal glucose control, an inability to break down sugar efficiently that often foreshadows diabetes, is double.
- Whites who eat fast food more than twice a week and also spend at least 2 1/2 hours a day watching television have triple the risk of both obesity and abnormal glucose control, compared to those who eat out once or less and watch no more than 1 1/2 hours of TV.
Many of the men and women in the study had fast food more than three times a week. Exactly what they ate didn’t seem to matter much. Fries, burgers, breakfast sandwiches and nuggets all meant a greater risk of obesity.
