Healthier fast food options

Fast food is notoriously unhealthy. It’s often packed full of calories, saturated fat, and sodium. A diet high in fast food may put you at greater risk of obesity, heart disease and type 2 diabetes.

For those who enjoy fast food it can be difficult to give it up completely. However, cutting out fast food can improve your health and well-being in a number of ways. It can make weight management easier, help lower your blood pressure, and potentially reduce your risk of chronic illnesses.

Switching to healthy alternatives to your favorite fast food dishes enables you to continue eating the occasional convenience meal while minimizing the negative health consequences. Here are some healthier fast food options to try:

• Salad bowls
• Chicken wraps
• Vegetarian burger
• Thin crust pizza
