INSTANT NOODLES NOT GOOD FOR HEALTH


BE CAREFUL  WHEN COOKING  INSTANT NOODLES.
 

The National Heart Institution has recommended not to over eat instant noodles as heart disease is mainly caused by the seasoning powder.   If you can't do without it, reduce the powder by half and don't drink the soup after you finish the noodles. 
The noodles are coated with wax and it will take around 4 to 5 days for the body to excrete the wax after you have eaten the noodles.
 
CORRECT METHOD OF COOKING NOODLESwithout harming our bodies and health:
1. Boil the noodles in a pot of water.
2. Once the noodles are cooked, take out the noodles, and throw away the water which contains wax.
3. Boil another pot of water, add the cooked noodles into the hot boiling water and then turn off the stove.
4. Only at this stage when the stove is off, and while the water is very hot, add the flavouring powder into the water, to make noodle soup.
5. However, if you need dry noodles, remove the noodles and add the flavouring powder and toss it to get dry noodles.
 

Dietician's Note: If you buy plain hakka noodles which you make, you initially need to boil in water and discard the water. This will soften the noodles.

To prevent it from sticking we need to add a table- spoon  of oil and also the noodles are deep fried partially to make them crunchy and then dusted with flour to prevent them from sticking while boiling. Hence when you buy the noodles they are already made unhealthy and this is the type we use to make stir fry noodles and the regular 'Maggi' too is made the same way, plus they add Mono-Sodium-Glutamet / Ajinomoto and other chemical preservatives.

A large number of patients with ages ranging from 18-24  years are ending up with pancreatitis either as  a swelling or infection of the pancreas
 due to regular consumption of instant noodles... If the frequency is more than 3 times a week, then it is very hazardous...
