RE: Food and Nutrition Awareness - Finding the Good and Bad from Lays Potato Chips
You've mentioned about sugar as to enhance the flavor. What you've failed to mention is - it's one of the main reasons for increased blood pressure and blood sugar levels.
These are not the main ingredients and in this product sugar and salt are to add taste.
Yes these are minor just to add flavor or taste but daily requirement of salt (table salt) in terms of sodium is 2300 mg per day for adult. But ideally 1500 mg Na is required. So hypertension people should also take into consideration this aspect.of lays. Also carbohydrates specially maltose and free glucose (sugars) as well as starch can raise the blood glucose level. But the interesting fact is, people don't care or even read the ingredient and calories, though this small pack of crisp or lays can slowly and slowly silently can affect their life style. Good work @cryptokraze.
