How to stay slim and healthy on the fast food diet
1980
Stern, Judith S. | Denenberg, R. V.
Abstract: The guilt-afflicted fast food fancier now has access to information on the nutrient content and composition of the offerings of the major fast food chains, and can plan a nutritious daily menu of around 1200 calories which includes a cheeseburger and french fries. The standards for nutritional adequacy in the diet and the specific contributions of fast foods are discussed, as well as additives commonly used to retard spoilage or enhance flavor and appearance. The drawbacks of fad diets are enumerated; encouragement of sensible habits and changed attitudes is offered instead, based on self analysis, better nutrition knowledge, and exercise. The drinks, salad ingredients, condiments, and specialties of 24 chains from Arby's to White Castle are analyzed for protein, fat, and carbohydrate, and the percentage of contribution to caloric content. A 1-week diet plan offers a reasonably balanced daily intake including a fast food meal, that should result in up to 3 pounds weight loss per week.
