What is FAST FOOD doing to our bodies?

Fast food fats have the potential, when consumed in excess (Government daily recommendations are less than 20g for women and 30g for men of saturated fats, and less than 5g trans-fats for both) to deliver both troublesome short-term problems and more alarming long-term repercussions to your health. After-all, every bite adds up, with a fast food burger packing about 10g of saturated fat, and a quarter of your recommended calorie intake for the day (and that’s before you factor in the fries and fizzy drink!).
