3 reasons you should uninstall the food delivery apps from your smart phone…

Unhealthy food habit is a major risk factor for your chronic disease like

diabetes, hypertension (high BP), thyroid disease etc.

Previously, when you were kids, your mom

used to cook feast at home and you used to

celebrate your festivals with your family & friends. Then,

you used to go out together  with your near & dear ones to

celebrate your festivals and now you are having

your smart phone with all the apps that

deliver all your favourite food at your home.

3-reasons to uninstall these food delivery apps like

Swiggy, Zomato, Uber eats etc. from your smart phone are:

1) You tend to order more than you actually need:

There are many offers like- Buy 1 get 1 pizza free.

Due to this, you tent to order more items than

you may actually need. And even if you don’t want to

eat pizza, you order it just because

there is some offer on pizza!!!!

2) You tend to order more frequently:

You tend to order more frequently as you get

tempted to get benefit of the app’s promotional offers. Even

you order food at late night which is

very odd time to eat, and which also

disturbs your digestion leading to many other problems.

3) Less ‘in person’ socialization:

Another thing is that, as food is delivered

at your home, you don’t meet your friends and

family & you end up having less “in person”

Socialization.

Thus, you end up having more calories more

frequently. It is harmful to you even if you are

not obese. It is best to avoid outside food. If you

want to have it, it is better to go out & have it rather than ordering it online.

That’s all for today.

Till then….

Take care….
