Why does frying food make it unhealthy?
In: Other
It increases the amount of fat in the food, from the oil.
For some time, we were convinced that fat was one of the worst things in food, especially animal fats. We’re starting to wonder if this is actually true (since obesity went up as we reduced fat consumption).
If you believe fats are inherently very bad for you, you will want to avoid fried foods.
There’s also the fact that many fried foods are themselves not very healthy to begin with, so frying just adds more calories to them.
