The Dangers of Deep Fried Food Deep fried foods are one of the most unhealthy types of food you can eat, and should be avoided. Most deep fried food contains saturated fats and trans-fats which contribute to the risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes. In addition, when oil is heated to high temperatures, or is over used, it forms a toxic compund called acrylamide which is a known carcinogen and neurotoxin. Foods such as french fries and potato chips contain high levels of acrylamide. Another reason to avoid deep fried food is that it is high in calories, and can lead to weight gain if eaten regularly. So, to stay healthy, stick to food that is prepared using healthy cooking methods.
