Answer: From added sugars and/or solid fats

Explanation:

Most empty-calorie foods are highly processed foods that contain added fat and sugar but with little if any to no nutrient value. These empty-calorie foods include most of the long shelf life foods and drinks sold in vending machines. Alcoholic drinks such as beers, wines and spirits also contain high numbers of empty calories.

Although these foods may be considered convenient, readily available and perhaps cheaper than nutrient-dense counterparts, overconsumption is very damaging to health. The main issue lies in the overconsumption. If too much energy is consumed but is not used up during day to day activities or exercise, the extra calories are stored in the body as fat and over time, result in weight gain.

Reading nutrition facts labels on the products purchased, particularly processed foods, can help in the identification of added sugars. These include:

  • white granulated sugar
  • sugar
  • sucrose
  • raw sugar
  • pancake syrup
  • maltose
  • invert sugar
  • high-fructose corn syrup
  • confectioner’s powdered sugar
  • brown sugar
  • anhydrous dextrose

Solid fats contain saturated fats and/or trans fats. These unhealthy fats raise bad (LDL) cholesterol levels in the blood, leading to increased risk for heart disease. The consumption of foods which contain solid fats are: saturated fats, trans fats and cholesterol. It is important to note that solid fats can be found in natrual foods but can be over added when processed.

The list of solid fats includes:

  • Pork fat or lard
  • Chicken fat
  • Butter
  • Stick margarine
  • Shortening
  • Cream
  • Milk fat
  • Partially and hydrogenated oils
  • Palm and kernel oils
  • Coconut oil
<h2>Please note that</h2><h2>Palm, kernel and coconut and hydrogenated oils are considered to be solid fats because they are high in the unhealthy saturated or trans fatty acids.</h2><h2 /><h2 />

Does anyone know what the answer is for matching each disease with a hygiene strategy for preventing it?
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Here are the correct answers:

A. Mononucleosis -  Do not share lip gloss

Mononucleosis is a virus that is passed on through contact with infected saliva. It is sometimes referred to as the kissing disease. You should never share lip gloss with someone as you could also contract herpes, colds and flu and other infections from it.

B. Conjunctivitis -  Do not share towels.

Conjunctivitis is an eye infection that causes the eye to go red and sometimes omit fluid. You should not share towels with other people as towels contain germs that can be passed on from person to person.

C. Salmonella poisoning - Cook meat and poultry thoroughly.

Salmonella poisoning occurs when you ingest meat that has not been cooked properly and the bacteria that is present in the meat has not been killed off. All meat should be cooked well to make sure no food poisoning occurs.
