Fast Food Nutrition Guide

Save money, and your health!

Keep in mind, health supplements are a great alternative to fast food. They are just as convenient, and less expensive.

Here are the top 4:

• Subway

• Burger King

• Wendy's

• McDonald's

This fast food nutrition guide exposes some of the most popular fast food choices

From Subway the best sandwich to order is the 6'Subway Club or Roasted chicken. Both have 330 calories with 5 grams of fat. The 6'meatball is the least healthy sub with 550 calories and 25 grams of fat.

At Burger King the best choices are the Original Whopper Jr. and the Chicken Whopper. Both have approximately 500 calories and 20 grams of fat. Try and avoid the Original Double Whopper with cheese which packs over 1000 calories. It would take you about and hour and a half to jog it off.

McDonald's worst burger is the Double Quarter Pounder with cheese which hits the scale about over 700 calories and 40 grams of fat. The best alternatives are the Grilled Chicken salads which have about 200 calories.

Wendy's Junior Hamburger is one of the healthiest choices with only about 280 calories when compared to the Big Bacon Classic which has 600 calories and 30 grams of fat.

When examining this fast food nutrition guide it is pretty clear that some choices are better then others. The best advice would be to try your best just to avoid them all together.

In creating the second part of this fast food nutrition guide I have used the help of the Nutrition Action Healthletter. It is a health newsletter published by the Center for Science in Public Interest.

In this specific newsletter they give a fast food nutrition guide along with 10 Super foods you should eat. They also name names with 10 foods you should try and avoid.

10 Super Foods You Should Eat

• Sweet Potatoes

• Grape Tomatoes

• Skim or 1% Milk

• Broccoli

• Wild Salmon

• Crispbreads - Wasa

• Butternut Squash

• Citrus Fruits

• Beans

• Spinach

Although these foods are not consider "fast food", any fast food nutrition guide should make it clear that fast food must be replaced with some other type of healthy food.

One thing that sticks out when looking at these 10 super foods are the amount of vitamins they provide.

If you are not getting plenty of these types of foods in your diet, you are not getting enough vitamins, minerals and antioxidants to live an optimal healthy lifestyle.

That is why supplementation with a good vitamin is so important.
