Resource #2


Many Believe that Chinese food is a very bad kind of fast food in the western hemisphere; they have a bad reputations that are mainly about high carbs especially in the rice.  However it is possible that Chinese diets can stop obesity in many areas.  According to studies the chiense eats 30% more calories and are less active than the US but the only difference is the kinds of calories.  The americans tend to eat empty calories such assugar and saturated fats that are in French fries, burgers, and pizza.  The chiense tend to get their calorie intake from more vegetables and leaner meats like fish.
