Depending on what fast food you get, it may be higher in calories (energy), saturated fat, and sodium than what your body needs at a specific mealtime. Also keep in mind that soda, often featured prominently at fast food restaurants, has a lot of added sugar which is generally not necessary in the diet. Many fast food chains have updated their menus to include more nutritious options, such as meals that contain fruits and vegetables. Keep in mind that lower calorie menu options are not necessarily “healthier.”
