Just one meal of junk food can narrow your arteries. This leads to an increase in blood pressure. The refined carbohydrates and added sugar in junk food causes a quick spike in your blood sugar. This can cause a surge in insulin, which leads to a quick drop in blood sugar, making you feel tired and hungry for more. One meal of fast food can also increase inflammation (a sign that the body is fighting something harmful and trying to heal itself) to the body. An Australian study states that a fast food meal that is high in saturated fat can make an asthma attack more likely to those suffering from asthma as it increases inflammation in the airway. Eating fast food for a few days can change your metabolism.

Long Term Effects
Eating too much junk food for a long period of time puts you in a higher risk of being obese, cause depression, cause problems to your digestive system, give you heart disease, cancer, diabetes and stroke, and can cause early death. There is a high amount of sodium in fast food. When you eat too much sodium, you kidneys have to try and maintain the sodium balance in your body by holding onto water. This causes increased blood volume which can turn into high blood pressure and hypertension. Saturated fats from junk food can cause heart disease by increasing levels of cholesterol. ]]> 2019-04-11 02:10:00 UTC https://padlet.com/huy0066/xeq84o3tsytr/wish/350615798 huy0066 https://padlet.com/huy0066/xeq84o3tsytr/wish/350616258 https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/wellness/sneaking-a-little-junk-food-doesnt-mean-all-is-lost/2018/02/26/828b75fa-1b36-11e8-9de1-147dd2df3829_story.html?utm_term=.4b5fe0d24d94

Some benefits of regular physical exercise include reduced risk of heart disease, lower blood cholesterol level, lower blood pressure, stronger bones, muscles and joints.]]> 2019-04-11 02:13:01 UTC https://padlet.com/huy0066/xeq84o3tsytr/wish/350616334 huy0066 https://padlet.com/huy0066/xeq84o3tsytr/wish/351016996 The simple answer is no. Calories are not created equally. What you eat signals for your hormones to store of burn fat, boost or crash metabolism and build to break down muscle. For example, the calories in spinach are not the same as the calories in ice cream. Spinach triggers hormones like glucagon (a hormone that releases fat to burn for energy) and the sugars in ice cream trigger insulin which causes stored fat. Exercising so that you can eat junk food isn't going to benefit your health. You will end up exhausting yourself and possibly become even hungrier as you are over-exercising and eating poorly. ]]> 2019-04-12 01:32:06 UTC https://padlet.com/huy0066/xeq84o3tsytr/wish/351016996 huy0066 https://padlet.com/huy0066/xeq84o3tsytr/wish/351025606 An average woman should be eating about 2000 calories everyday while an average man should be eating 2500 calories a day. You should be eating a meal or a snack every 3 to 4 hours. This will prevent you from binge eating often and fuel your metabolism. To help you stay full, you should combine different sources of protein and fibre in every meal. Drinking water is also very important. Everyday, you should be eating 6-8 servings of grain (bread, rice, pasta), 2-4 servings of fruit (apples bananas, pears), 4-6 servings of vegetables (broccoli, lettuce, carrots), 2-3 servings of dairy (milk, yoghurt, cheese) and 2-3 servings of meat or any food that has protein (beef, pork, beans, nuts). Fats, oils and sweets should be eaten occasionally.

Experts say that you should aim to get around 30 minutes of exercise a day in order to receive the benefits of exercise. You should also try and minimise the amount of time that you spend sitting down. Adults should aim for 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity (fast walking, playing badminton for recreation, bike riding) or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity (jogging, hiking, basketball/soccer game) a week. Children and adolescents should aim for 1 hour of physical activity a day ranging from moderate to vigorous aerobic activities. ]]> 2019-04-12 02:22:03 UTC https://padlet.com/huy0066/xeq84o3tsytr/wish/351025606
