Even home-made foods can be unhealthy: ICMR
Advertisement
Home-cooked meals, often considered healthier, can still be unhealthy if they contain too much fat, sugar, or salt. According to the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), even homemade foods can become unhealthy when prepared with high amounts of these ingredients. High-fat foods are energy-dense, meaning they have high calories but lack essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Regular consumption of such foods can lead to overweight and obesity, depriving the body of necessary nutrients.
