Experts Outline Multiple Health Risks of Frequent Junk Food ConsumptionPreviousNext

On National Junk Food Day, experts highlight that frequent consumption of junk food affects more than just weight. Diets high in ultra-processed foods, added sugars, unhealthy fats, and excess sodium can impact heart health, brain function, digestion, metabolism, sleep, and mental wellbeing. Nutritionists emphasize moderation and balanced choices over complete restriction to reduce risks of chronic conditions like heart disease, fatty liver, type 2 diabetes, and poor gut health.
