Most fried foods are covered with an outer layer of flour, when exposed to hot oils, the food loses moisture and absorbs fat, leading to a strong increase in energy. Regularly eating fried foods can lead to many dangerous diseases:

- Cardiovascular disease: Fried foods can cause high blood pressure, reduce HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol) levels, and lead to obesity, all of which are contributors to heart disease.

- Diabetes: Consuming fried foods increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. High fat, calorie and sodium content contributes to weight gain and insulin resistance, which can aggravate the condition.

- Obesity: Too many calories from fried foods are the main cause of weight gain. In addition, the trans fats in fried foods disrupt hormones that control appetite and fat storage.

Safer cooking methods

Use good oils:

- Coconut oil: More than 90% is saturated fatty acid, very durable and does not improve quality even when fried continuously.

- Olive oil: Contains monounsaturated fats, which are relatively stable when cooked at high temperatures.

- Avocado oil: similar to olive oil, is extremely heat-resistant, making it a good choice for deep-fried.

Replace with other cooking methods

- Bake: Bakeing food at very high temperatures (about 232°C) can create a crispy texture on the outside without just a little or no oil.

- Unfloated: The air fryer works by rotating extremely strong hot air around food. This method brings crispy, moist food on the outside, with the amount of fat reduced by 70-80% compared to traditional frying methods.
