What Could Daily Consumption of Chips, Biscuits and Namkeen Do to Your Health?
Published
In Pakistan, chips, biscuits and namkeen are very popular among both children and adults. These items are easily available and can be bought at low prices. That is why they have become part of everyday meals in many households.
On the program Aaj Pakistan on Aaj News, Sadra Iqbal discussed the topic of what health effects could result from eating these items daily. The program was broadcast on 28 October 2026. It also included discussion of health-related information and healthy eating practices.
These items generally contain high amounts of salt, sugar and oil. If they are eaten daily in large quantities, the risk of problems such as weight gain and high blood pressure may increase. A habit of consuming too much salt and sugar in childhood can also lead to health problems later in life.
Health experts generally advise that fruits, vegetables, peanuts, chickpeas and yogurt can be better alternatives. When buying packaged items, reading their labels and drinking plenty of water is also considered beneficial. In the case of any health problem, it is better to consult a doctor or a nutritionist.
Thus, this topic is important for every household, because small daily habits can also affect health over the long term.
