Health is "a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity."-WHO

When we talk about wealth, what comes into mind? 💰 Money? Right? But think it this way : what if you have money for everything but your health is in worst condition and due to it you stay grumpy and your life unfolds in hospital bed. will you call it a good life? Probably not! So the point is HEALTH IS THE REAL WEALTH.

Healthy food

We all believe that for good health we have to go for walk, jym, exercises, yoga etc. Partially its true but do you know that in most of the cases it's about good food. A healthy food keeps the body in balance.

When junk food is consumed very often, the excess fat, simple carbohydrates, and processed sugar found in junk food contributes to an increased risk ofobesity,cardiovascular disease, and many other chronic health conditions.

The nutrition we recieve from food are the real health booster!

Junk food is junk!

Most of us likes to eat burger, chowmein, noodles, etc. but we never think what's happening to our health. Such food gives you mineral? Does it give you vitamin?

So ask yourself next time why junk food?

In Andrew F. Smith'sEncyclopedia of Junk Food and Fast Food, junk food is defined as "those commercial products, includingcandy, bakery goods, ice cream,salty snacksand soft drinks, which have little or no nutritional valuebut do have plenty of calories, salt, and fats. While not all fast foods are junk foods, most are. Fast foods are ready-to-eat foods served promptly after ordering. Some fast foods are high in calories and low in nutritional value, while other fast foods, such as salads, may be low in calories and high in nutritional value."

Junk food is a term for food containing high levels of calories from sugar and.fat with less protein, vitamins or minerals. The term describes that a particular food has less nutrition value and contains a lot of fat, sugar,salt and calories.- Wikipedia

Healthy food

In general, claims of health benefits for specific foodstuffs are not supported by scientific evidence and are not evaluated by national regulatory agencies. Additionally, research funded by manufacturers or marketers has been criticized to result in more favorable results than those from independently funded research.

According to the FDA, "Health claims describe a relationship between a food, food component, or dietary supplement ingredient, and reducing risk of a disease or health-related condition".

While there is no precise definition for "health food", theFDA monitors and warnsfood manufacturers against labeling foods as having specific health effects when no evidence exists to support such statements, such as for one manufacturer in 2018

TheWestern pattern dietwhich is typically eaten by Americans and increasingly adopted by people in the developing world as they leave poverty is unhealthy: it is "rich in red meat, dairy products, processed and artificially sweetened foods, and salt, with minimal intake of fruits, vegetables, fish, legumes, and whole grains.
