It\u2019s easy, it\u2019s tasty, and for many, a family favorite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But doctors and dieticians say there is one frozen food in particular that you should stop buying immediately, as it can be very bad for your health!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
New research found eating frozen pizza may have a detrimental impact on your heart health.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Dietary experts say that the processed ingredients in this convenient meal can put you at risk of heart disease and other health issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n As the researchers note, \u201cmost frozen pizzas are loaded with unhealthy ingredients, including processed meats, high-fat cheeses, and sugary sauces.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n And when you throw them all together, you\u2019ve frankly got a recipe for disaster when it comes to your heart health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhile an occasional slice of pizza won\u2019t kill you, eating frozen pizzas on a regular basis can increase your risk of developing heart disease or other cardiovascular problems,\u201d said Krutika Nanavati, speaking to Yahoo News. Nanavati is a registered dietician with Clinicspots. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Some frozen pizzas may be even worse than others. Nanavati told Yahoo that \u201ctopping it off with processed meats and full-fat cheese can make it even worse.\u201d Processed meats like sausage and pepperoni, in particular, can take a serious toll on your heart health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He notes that \u201ceating processed meats can increase your risk of heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular problems, so it\u2019s best to avoid them as much as possible.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n Overall, no processed frozen food is going to be a good idea for your health, so it\u2019s generally best to skip the freezer section at the grocery store altogether, says Nanavati \u2014 unless, of course, you\u2019re buying frozen fruits and vegetables, which she says can be just as nutritious as fresh. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019re really craving pizza, it\u2019s likely worth the effort to make it yourself with fresh ingredients and lots of nutritious veggies rather than throwing a frozen one in the oven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Or look for healthier alternatives that are now available in the frozen pizza section that are organic and vegan with crusts made from things like broccoli or cauliflower.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It\u2019s easy, it\u2019s tasty, and for many, a family favorite.
