Why is fast food unhealthy?


Fast food is often nutritionally poor and high in calories. Evidence demonstrates that overeating commercial fast food products can negatively impact health in both the short- and long-term.

The Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion notes that the typical person in the United States consumes too much of these food components.
