Processed foods are bad for health. What are processed food? Some examples of processed food are sausages, meatballs, crabmeat and all types canned food. What are these foods made from? Guess what? The sausages are made of unwanted parts of the chicken, like the head, neck and the butt. Isn't it disgusting? Think about it, some loves to eat sausages and what are they really eating? The answer is, chicken asses.

Processed food are made such that it can be kept for a long period of time. What is used to preserve them?

Killer number 1 is the large amount of salt used to preserve it. Did you know that salt is poisonous? Salt contains poisons. Yes, there's an ' s ' at the back. It contains two poisons - sodium and chlorine. Large amount of salts (quite a few tablespoons) could upset the working of your nerves with fatal results.

Killer number is the preservatives used. Research has shown that preservatives cause respiratory and other health problems.Allergenic preservatives in food or medicine can cause anaphylacic shock in susceptible individuals, a condition which is often fatal within minutes without emergency.

Personally, I hate sausages. My diet is relatively balanced. It is alright to eat processed foods in moderation. Eat more real food like chicken meat, fish or youpork(halal better not eat :P) for a healthy body. Vegetables and fruits are a compulsory. Be more mindful of what eat and achieve a balanced diet with 5 servings of cabohydrates, 2 servings of protein, vegetables and fruits and little fats.

In conclusion, exercise moderation when eating processed food.

Yours sincerely,
