For the final part in the series, lets talk about junk food control to lose or maintain your weight.
Here are Some Scary Facts about Junk Food that Might Convince You to Eat Healthier
Junk foods are unhealthy, fatty, and high in sugar. For example, a can of coca cola contains about nine teaspoons of sugar.
Junk food isn't filling, so you tend to eat more. In fact, the fats contained in junk foods send a trigger to your brain to crave more food.
It places you at risk of health complications like obesity, diabetes, and high blood pressure.
- Eating junk affects your memory in that the excess sugar and fat inhibit the functions of the brain peptide (BDNF) responsible for coordinating memory and learning.
When you cut out junk food from your diet you don't just eat healthier, you'd also lose weight and this happens because you'd be taking in less calories.
