Gepuk, matcha, nasi lemak, kunafa... yummy check, unhealthy double check.
The list above and then some have quickly become some of the most popular selections in Malaysia. They are nothing short of life-changing of course, but can they contribute to changing your life? Also, yes.
Malaysia, known as a food haven, it's no doubt we're proud to celebrate various cultures, races and all the tasty food we can get. However, based on a post by Public Health Malaysia on Facebook, these 5 meals have been officially categorised as unhealthy.
This is because as rewarding as they may feel, they actually contain an insane amount of sugar and calories. As a matter of fact, the trend of having these selections and others in excess have very quickly become a contributing factor to rising obesity levels throughout the country.
As tasty and visually appealing as they look, it is important that they are taken in, in absolute moderation, so that we can remain healthy.
