Health and Wellness: My favorite nutrition lesson
Fast food is bad for you. This is not a controversial statement. Sure, you have healthy choices, but did you really go to Steak N Shake for the salad? No, you went for the double steak burger, cheese fries, and the birthday cake shake. We know why it is bad: the shake is packed with sugar, the french fries are processed, frozen, and fried, and who knows what’s in the cheese sauce… This is a common discussion in high school Health classes. We take it a step further in my favorite nutrition lesson by asking “How bad is it?”
