Risk of diabetes in children due to pizza-burger, French fries, chocolate, cold drinks

There was a time when going out to eat was a luxury. Earlier, on some festival or special day, one had to go out to eat with parents, but the changing lifestyle and weekend culture has made eating out very common, which is having the biggest impact on the health of children.

Nowadays, pizza-burgers, French fries, chocolate and cold drinks have become everyday things in the diet of children. A new study has claimed that the risk of diabetes among Indians has increased manifold due to the ever-increasing consumption of ultra-processed food. Grilled ultra-processed food is consumed in every household in India, which is the direct reason for the continuously increasing cases of diabetes in the country. The number of Databytes patients in India is 10.10 crore. Foods such as red meat, French fries, fried foods, bacon, bakery products, biscuits, butter and margarine are rich in AGEs.
