10. Frozen Dinners
Frozen meals are the next best thing to takeaway food: a complete meal of vegetables, entrée, and starch, all on one plate, right out of the microwave – easy peasy – and a boon in this age when many of us come home in the evening too tired to even read the junk mail that has arrived.
However, frozen dinners are often loaded with sugars, fat, and sodium. Those additives can lead to weight and heart problems. They can also raise your blood pressure, putting you at danger for stroke. If you do get frozen meals, focus on organic meals with an ingredient list full of foods you recognize.
