Eating Out May Be Dangerous

 

Researchers in Massachusetts studied 500 adults for a year. They determined that those with the highest risk of obesity were those who ate the most meals away from home.
Frequently eating breakfast and/or dinner out was associated with an increased risk of obesity.
The study also evaluated the nutritional content of meals eaten at home versus those eaten away from home. Breakfasts and dinners eaten away from home were significantly higher in total calories, percentage of calories from total fat, and percentage of calories from saturated fat. Meanwhile, they were lower in their percentage of calories from protein, carbohydrate, and fiber.

Eat at home as often as you can.
