Tasty on the Tongue is not Necessarily Healthy for the Body

Tasty on the tongue is not necessarily healthy for the body, this proverb reminds us that not all foods that taste good are good for our health. Some foods that are often considered delicious can actually increase the risk of disease and poor health conditions. One example of food that is delicious on the tongue, but not necessarily healthy for the body is fast food. Burgers, fries and soft drinks are foods that are usually on the menu of fast food restaurants. These foods are often processed with added chemicals and preservatives that can increase the risk of developing obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Sweet foods are also often considered delicious, but these foods contain sugar which can increase the risk of developing diabetes, obesity, and other health problems. Consuming too many sweet foods can also increase the risk of developing dental disease and bone damage.
