If you know of their heat, would also like to point吗? -healthy recipes and snacks

Background: New York City Health Committee in January 2008 passed a bill requiring all the city has opened 15 stores more than fast-food chain enterprises have to be at each of its recipes on the back of a fast food clearly marked how much of its heat. This involves about 10,000 food and beverage outlets, such as McDonald's, Burger King, Starbucks and so on. Recently, the New York City authorities have said that will begin in July, do not mark up on food recipes calorie fast-food chain to carry out punishment.

city's nutrition experts said, with food and beverage nutrition label, people point at meal time, she clearly more. What is high heat, what the heat low, it clearly marked on the menu next to each food.

Imagine, if this bill in a big city in China to pass it, it will be what is the problem? Perhaps a lot of people remain indifferent, but at the same time there is a lot of people have won the applause. Because, those who have high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity and high blood pressure, they will know their point of food or drink is beneficial to health.

for example, into the coffee shop at the time, people have to weigh the good. Few people put coffee and high-calorie food contact, and even have people think, coffee drinks are on good lose weight.

Yes, do not add milk and no sugar no dairy clearance coffee, are genuine low-calorie beverages, and Since contains a lot of caffeine, can enhance the body's basic metabolism values, they are those who lose weight are considered suitable for drinking. However, if coffee Riga add the milk sugar add the add the whipped cream at the end of this? See the Associated Press reported that some of them to expose the heat coffee drinks:

Starbucks Venti Java Frappucinno, add whipping cream per 600 kcal

Starbucks Grand cup white chocolate mocha, add whipping cream 470 kcal each

Indeed, people do not think that everyone favorite latte add butter, a large glass of which the heat is as high as 500 kcal about. If a major point of French fries as a snack while drinking eating, but also coupled with more than 500 kcal of heat (of McDonald's large fries for 570 kcal). If you eat a popcorn do? Have to add more than 500 kcal of heat (at a microwave popcorn products, the 118 grams, which contains 11.2 percent fat, carbohydrates 75.3%, protein 7.1%).

the case, a cup of latte, plus a snack, have been 1000 kcal of heat下肚. Want to know, a physical activity of adult women do not have a great day, only 2,100 kilocalories of energy required.下一餐even less appetite, excessive energy of the day also is a foregone conclusion.

this time, you do not have to complain about "how I long喝凉水meat." Because you finally know that you do not drink cold water, you are drinking large quantities of fat and sugar, at a coffee shop where you actually intake so many calories, almost more than the normal weight supper!

obesity problem now that the Chinese have not only limited to middle-aged and old, but keep getting younger, and even juvenile of. Beijing's "three high" children and teenagers has more than 210,000 people, obesity rates are up with the United States surpassed that of Britain. Shanghai's survey also found that 11.5 percent of obese children and adolescents to enter the ranks. If our young people to eat or muddle, muddle drink, and even put an unhealthy diet and drink as a fashion, how can we not be worried about?

I hope people join in the appeal at an early date at which our country has implemented a similar city laws and regulations, so that everyone clearly consumption restaurants and cafes were all the food and drink!
