Health lessons: The lesson is that healthy foods can benefit your body by making you healthier with all the nutrients and that fast food can make you overweight, drain your energy and at some point eventually kill you.

Fast foods are high in cholesterol, salt and trans fats - because many fast food meals contain some form of red meat. All three of these things cause higher blood pressure, poor cholesterol ratios and unhealthy levels of trans fats in the body.

Fast foods contain trans fats which are artificially hydrogenated fatty acid chains. Your body understands how to take apart and use normal fatty acid chains, but gets lost trying to break down trans fats. Unbroken chains of fat in your body are extremely unhealthy.

Healthy food has the nutrients to support every part of your body.
