WHY YOU SHOULD STOP THE FREQUENT USE OF “MAGGI CUBES” IN YOUR MEALS | NUTALK™

Reading Genesis 5: 3-36, you will take great notice of the numbers each early man managed to achieve in terms of his age count with the lowest being Enoch (who despite ranking last, recorded a whopping 365 years).
The question is; how did these people manage to attain these high age numbers since God loves us no less?
A probable answer could be that they ate natural foods and had nothing to do with processed foods.

Alright, moving from that background let’s talk “maggi”.
Maggi is a product of Nestle and used by lots of people across the world (especially Africans) for the sole reason of enhancing taste in meals. The other side of the coin is that its components can be very harmful to an individual’s health if chronically consumed

Maggi cubes basically contain (in unhealthy amounts):

Sodium: Excessive amounts of sodium increases your chances of developing high blood pressure which consequentially lead to heart disease, stroke, heart failure and kidney disease. 

Hydrogenated Oils: These were once-healthy oils that have been processed into extremely harmful trans-fats. Trans-fats are well-associated with increase in bad/white-fats/Low-density Lipoproteins (LDL) cholesterol with a corresponding decrease in good/brown-fats/HDL cholesterol. This increases your chances of developing artery- blockage (arteriosclerosis) leading to hypertension.

Mono-Sodium Glutamate: This is responsible for the taste Maggi’s brings to your dishes. Though Nestle says it uses safe amounts, it is still not a healthy inclusion.

GOOD SIDE
Maggi cubes have recently been fortified with micro-nutrients like iron.

CONCLUSION
Come to think of it, have we developed a sweet tongue or we just don’t want to eat healthy?
The use of species like garlic, ginger and more if mixed right will bring great taste to your meals.
The choice is yours to make!!
