Potato Chips

When you’re craving salty goodness, chips are usually an excellent go-to. Where they fall short is in nutritional value. Most chips are made from highly processed ingredients, unpronounceable chemicals, and cooked in oils that are full of trans fats. Mark Sisson points out that trans fats can cause more weight gain than a diet with monounsaturated fat.

That fat ends up in your abdominal area, which is the riskiest place to carry it, as fat there has been linked to cardiovascular disease. These types of unnatural fats are also connected to inflammation and plaque in the arteries.
