Snacking on processed foodsProcessed foods are those that have been altered from their natural state, either for safety reasons or to increase the shelf life. They mostly come in a box, can, bag or carton. Studies suggest that processed foods could lead to many chronic diseases and health conditions such as obesity and diabetes due to the fact that they contain large amounts of sodium or fat (trance) and less amount of fibre as needed. Try to avoid white colored foods, meaning the food that contain flour, sugar, margarine, or ingredients that have weird chemical names. Processed foods also contain a lot of additives that are used to add color, stabilize, texturize, preserve, sweeten and to thicken.
