9 Reasons To Stop/reduce Eating Instant Noodles. by Vikkie14: 3:32pm On Dec 14, 2014
Here are some facts why you need to stay away from or stop the consumption of "Noodles". No doubt we love this meal because it's edible(when cooked and uncooked),sweet and "easy" to cook[you dont need any nutritionist to give you instruction(s) on how to cook it].
It's something we opt-for when in a hurry, when the kids are crying, and when we dont have appetite for "hard" meal. But, today, what seems "unharmful" during our great grand father's era are not "harmless" now.

During our child-hood days, we could put/rub sands on our sore while playing but today, one dare not do it, cox Mr tetanus is waiting(tho it seems that disease is forgotten now).

Here are 9 "harmful" things Noodles can cause in the human body.


(1) CANCER
The ingredient in the Instant Noodles called "Styrofoam" is a cancer causing agent.

(2) MISCARRIAGE
Women who are eating Instant Noodles during pregnancy causes miscarriage because it affect the development of foetus in the womb.

(3) JUNK FOOD
Instant Noodles are enriched with/full of carbohydrate but no vitamin, fibre and minerals.

(4) SODIUM
Instant Noodles are power packed with high amount of sodium. Excessive consumption of sodium leads to heart disease, stroke, hypertension and kidney damage.

(5) MSG: MONOSODIUM GLUTAMATE
MonoSodium Glutamate is used to enhance the flavour of Instant Noodles. People who are allergic to MSG consume it as part of their diet, then they end up suffering from headaches, facial flushing, pain and burning sensation.

(6) OVER-WEIGHT
Eating noodles is the leading cause of obesity. Noodles contains fat and large amounts of sodium, which causes water retention in the body and surely it leads to overweight and obesity in turn leads to heart problem.

(7) DIGESTION
Instant Noodles are bad for the digestive system. Regular consumption of noodles causes irregular bowl movement and bloating.

[8] PROPYLENE GLYCOL
The ingredient in the Instant Noodles called "propylene glycol" has a anti-freeze property. This ingredient is used in prevention of the noodle drying up by retaining its moisture. It weakens the immune system of the body. It's easily absorbed by the body and it accumulate in the Kidney, Heart and Liver thereby causing abnormalities and damages.

(9) METABOLISM
Regular intake and consumption of Instant Noodles affect the body metabolic system because of the chemical substances like the Additive, colouring and preservative contained in the noodles.


So, halt or better-still reduce its consumption.

Please SHARE so others would have enlightment about the subject.

I wish I can stop eating noodles. But with school stress and stuffs like that... cooking and eating noodles becomes the nearest and easiest available rescue to my hungry stomach except on Saturdays, Sundays or maybe lecture free days that one can have enough time to prepare good food... I know it's really not good to eat noodles. but why did they allow producers to produce it when they know it's not health wise

I agree with you but as we know there are some things(food,material or even habit) that we can't let-go easily because we are "familiar" with them but which we know or unknowing, are harmful to our health. We may say we cant "do without" it, but ....
Wont it be better we "reduced and minimized" its intake/consumption.

And to your last suggestion, i could draw a correlation with or better still re-phrase it as "WHY WOULD THEY ALLOW PRODUCERS TO PRODUCE "CIGARETTE" WHEN GOVERNMENT KNOW ITS HARMFUL HEALTH-WISE". Do you get the point am implying.

Could i say "ignorance" dey worry you too? Did i ever mention you being ignorant about noodles? I was just saying every noodles producer is a culprit of these. You mentioned Indomie which in actual fact is just a company's name while i am generalising them, be it Indomie,Golden penny etc. If you aint ignorant about the diff between Indomie and Noodles why the "SoS". #NoBeef
