Bulk pastries of several health risks (do not take it to send the elderly)

Bulk pastries, although inexpensive, but really not young and old, and also hidden a lot of health risks:

1, the risk of expiration of the snacks spoiled. Because the production date can not be printed directly to a variety of delicious pies and pastries, so the production date of bulk snacks by the mouth of the sales staff to decide, or simply the date of packaging and production date mixed. Some of the best-selling treats are fine and usually don't have too much backlogged inventory, but those that are less popular and are purchased by fewer customers are at a higher risk of expiration, even if they've already expired on the day you bought them.

2, the risk of excessive fat content. This bulk food does not have a nutritional composition table, often fat will be excessive, and in order to extend the shelf life and reduce costs, often with saturated fats or hydrogenated fats, such as lard, butter, margarine, palm oil, etc., these fats are very harmful to cardiovascular health. Because there is no labeling of fat content, calories and sugar, so it is easier for people to lose vigilance and excessive intake.

3, lipid oxidation and the risk of nutrient loss. Prolonged exposure to air, for some raw materials have nuts in the snacks of fat is easily oxidized and produce peroxides, in the body will produce free radicals, promote aging and disease, because nuts in the unsaturated fatty acid content is high, in the process of production and was broken, so it is more likely to be oxidized, such as added melon seeds kernels, almonds crushed, walnuts, etc., snacks, this situation is especially obvious in the summer. Of course, there are some unscrupulous merchants may use the raw material itself has been oxidized and spoiled. So if you feel the haram flavor of the pastry, you must not eat.

4. Risk of sugar and calorie overload. As in the case of excessive fat, because there is no mandatory labeling of sugar and calories in confectionery, the amount of sugar and sweetness added is solely for the purpose of pleasing consumers' taste buds, not for their health. Even some pastries that claim to be sucrose-free and sugar-free are not guaranteed to meet the requirements, thus misleading diabetics, or some people who want to satisfy their appetite and lose weight at the same time.

5, the worst hit by flavors and colors. Every time you pass by the snack area is not a sense of smell and taste strongly "seduced" feeling, in order to attract customers, they will add flavors, strong milk, mixed with attractive fruit flavor, are from the flavors, coupled with the baking process of the Melad reaction, just out of the pot of snacks
