The nutritional composition table of instant noodles shows that the energy of a packet of ordinary instant noodles in the list is as high as 19 13 kilojoules, accounting for 23% of the daily needs, which is much higher than the combination of ordinary home-cooked meals-rice, vegetables and meat.
We should pay attention to the content of fat and sodium: no meat, no appetite, but a pack of instant noodles every day accounts for 38% of the fat content. Even more frightening is the sodium content. The recommended daily intake of sodium is 2000 mg, and a pack of instant noodles can easily fill the limit-even if you eat the lowest 1870 mg, eating more sodium in one day will exceed the standard.
In addition to "tasty" seasonings, various sodium-containing additives in instant noodles and cakes also "contribute" a lot of sodium. High sodium is not only an important cause of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, but also indirectly leads to obesity, so it is not advisable to eat instant noodles casually in order to lose weight.
