Healthy and Unhealthy foods

There are many things that decide whether a food is healthy or not. Firstly you must look at the saturated fat levels in the food, to see how many grams of fat it has. Then you must reason whether the amount of calories it possesses is good for the weight it will add to your body. Then you must check how many vitamins and minerals it has, and if it has empty calories.

Empty calories are calories with minimal vitamins and minerals, and only provide excess calories, so basically their "empty" of what our bodies need.
