The Chinese are known to be health conscious and are knowledgeable in traditional healing ways. However, it was found that not all Chinese foods are considered healthy. Even though you can opt to have your food steamed or stir-fried, these dishes might still be oily. And, sometimes these foods are packed with sodium.

For example, dumplings that are steamed, still contain pork and other ingredients that contain a high amount of calories. Chinese dishes like sweet and sour chicken or shrimp also contain a high amount of sugar.

Aside from Chinese foods, there are also cuisines from other countries that are high in cholesterol and are very oily and fatty. So, you better check the kind of foods that you take before regretting it.

Try this instead: Cook your own favorite dish

Instead of ordering Chinese foods from your favorite restaurants, why not cook your own version of these dishes so that you can control the oil and sugar content in your cooking? It is also advised to add lots of vegetables to your diet to lower the sugar level in your body.
