Alicia Mackey Huber argues that a single fried meal triggers two days of inflammation, longer than smoking a cigarette's four-to-eight-hour effect. She says fried foods harm sleep and skin, and recommends baking fries instead or eating ice cream as a less harmful alternative.
Don't eat fried stuff ever. You take a Brussels sprout, you deep fry it. It's going to taste good. It's going to be bad for you. And here's why. The amount of inflammation in the body from one meal with fried things in it. I don't care if it's fried fish or fried potato chips, it doesn't matter. That increases inflammation for two days. A cigarette is four to eight hours. You're better off to smoke a cigarette than you are to eat a plate of french fries. And it's that big of a deal. French fries can't have. Well, they're fried. Here, bake the damn french fries. It's not that hard. You bake them and put really good butter on them afterwards. It tastes the same. And like, that's not food. And look at the sleep quality when you eat fried stuff. Look at two days later. What does my skin look like? It is just not worth it. Save those calories for something that's really good. Eat ice cream instead of french fries. It's a much better trade off. Seriously, the ice cream is way less harmful.
