快餐是指可以迅速准备和供应的食物。快餐也可以定义为：那些饮食中营养价值很低或者没有营养价值的食物。这种食物只能提供过量的卡路里和脂肪。快餐是节省时间的一个好方法，但是却没有充分的营养。其中的一些食物不仅营养价值很低，而且在脂肪，糖分和卡路里等方面含量很高。常见的食物包括咸的零食、口香糖、糖果、甜点、油炸食品和碳酸饮料。快餐可能还包括薯片、热馅饼、馅饼、三明治、汉堡、羊角面包、烤肉、披萨、鸡肉、汤和沙拉，甚至包括奶昔和软饮。现在，我们来讨论由快餐引起的一些最常见的疾病和其它副作用。
1.Obesity
1.肥胖症
Obesity means having too much body fat. It is not the same as being overweight, which means weighing too much. Fast food is high in calories and sugar that contribute to increased-weight gain.Even small amount of fast food can increase your calorie intake considerably. Fast foods also replace healthy eating habits, People who consume fast foods are less likely to eat fruits, vegetables, milk etc. This change in eating habits can easily lead to obesity.
肥胖症意味着身体的脂肪过多。它和超重是不同的，超重意味着体重过重。快餐的卡路里和糖分含量很高，这会导致体重增加。即使一小部分快餐也能大大增加你的卡路里摄入量。快餐也取代了健康的饮食习惯，吃快餐的人们很少吃水果，蔬菜和牛奶等食物。这种饮食上的改变很容易导致肥胖症。
2.Heart Disease
2.心脏病
People who eat fast-food four or more times a week, up their risk of dying from heart disease by 80 percent. Fast foods create a much higher risk of heart disease because of the high level of saturated or trans fats found in much of the food. Those fats can clog the arteries and, over time, contribute to high cholesterol levels.
那些每周吃快餐四次以上的人死于心脏病的风险增加了80%。快餐会导致心脏病患病风险增加，因为这些食物中有高水平的饱和脂肪或者反式脂肪。这些脂肪能够阻塞动脉，久而久之，就会导致胆固醇水平升高。
3.Type 2 Diabetes
3.2型糖尿病
Fast food has become a way of life for many busy persons seeking a fast and inexpensive alternative to cooking at home. Although they may develop type 2 diabetes, this type of diabetes is often caused by poor lifestyle choices, such as being overweight and not being physically active. There is a side effect to consuming frequent amounts of fast food 'obesity' which can lead to the development of diabetes.
快餐已经成为许多忙碌的人追寻的一种快速而廉价，并且能够替代在家做饭的生活方式。但是快餐可能导致2型糖尿病，这种类型的糖尿病通常是由不良的生活方式引起的，比如超重和缺乏运动。高频率食用快餐导致的肥胖症会加重糖尿病的病情。
