What will happen if you eat processed foods every day: doctors warn about the dangers
Convenience food is a type of food product that has been altered during preparation so that it can be cooked more quickly.
In most cases, it is enough to subject a semi-finished culinary product to heat treatment.
A ready-to-eat meal that you simply pop in the microwave is considered highly processed because it has been partially cooked.
The main benefit of processing is that a person receives useful and nutritious substances.
How harmful are processed foods?
First of all, it is recommended to avoid highly processed foods – sauces, confectionery mixes and cutlets.
Doctors do not recommend eating semi-finished products more than four times a month, while other scientists believe that the amount of semi-finished products should not exceed 50%.
Convenience foods include chips, canned vegetables, fruit juices, frozen meals and restaurant food.
Excessive consumption of processed foods can lead to the development of quite unpleasant diseases.
