Same here! Quick and easy foods are a lifesaver during finals. Just trying to remind myself not to lean too hard on fried snacks when I’m stressed—fried foods are packed with calories and trans fats, which can mess with digestion and focus. Fuel smart, skip fried food.

Fried foods are full of calories and sometimes trans fats, which contribute to stomach issues, inflammation and a higher risk of having obesity and heart disease. 🍗🍟

Why Is Fried Food So Bad for You?
Fried foods are everywhere, and there’s no denying it: They taste delicious. But there’s no denying this either: Fried foods pose several health risks. Here’s why.
