Why is fast food bad for you. Well is being overweight or even being obese good for you - NO. The main reasons fast food is bad for you is that it piles the weight on giving the body next to no nutrition. Its like eating saw dust it will fill you up but it will give you no minerals, protein or essential vitamins. For you muscles, organs and brain to function well, all these essential ingredients from a balanced diet has to be consumed, if not then you will turn into a bowl of porridge. The salt from fast food is bad for the heart, the animal leftovers are poured into the mix and turn your guts into a sluice bucket and you become a big obese waste of space, costing the health services billions of pounds(dollars) a year in additional health care. Do your self a favour and eat healthily for a healthy lifestyle.

Many fast food places such as burger places serve foods with bad meat type fillers, generic addatives, sugar, cholesteral, and high in calories in that whole combination is just not good for you to eat on a regular basis. But, not all fast food places are bad, their are many the actually have or will point out the healty foods on the menu.

because most are fried.heating oil causes it to "expel" free radicals ,these cause cancer.the oil is fried,re,re fried making this even worse!
they are foods with little nutritional value,adding mayonnaise made with hydrogenated oil is really bad too.
full of empty calories,much too much fat that clogs your arteries!
look at the food pyramid and compare with a hamburger,fried chicken etc!you do not need that much saturated fat re-fried oils,

That's Easy;
Fast food contains too much calories in the form of fat calories, also cholesterol runs rampart causing clogged arteries, and you sure don't want them, take it from one that knows!

the way it is cooked with all the fat oil and hydronated stuff. if you cooked a burger at home it would be tons healthier because you wouldnt add fat to flavor it
