Children consume many more calories when eating fast food, or at restaurant
From Chicago - Children consume more calories when they eat at either a fast food or full service restaurant, according to a report published in the Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine. Researchers studied over 10000 children and adolescents, comparing their calorie intake, diet and sugar-sweetened beverage consumption on days they ate at home, and fast food or full service restaurants. They found the following: -When adolescents ate fast food, they consumed an additional 309 calories a day -When children ate fast food, they consumed an additional 126 calories -When adolescents ate at a full service restaurant, they consumed an extra 267 calories -When children ate at a full service restaurant, they consumed an extra 160 calories These numbers, the authors point out, are especially concerning because 41% of adolescents and 1/3 of children consume fast food on a given day.From:insidermedicineViews:0 0ratingsTime:00:57More inScience Technology
