Is it still unhealthy to eat junk food all the time if you're skinny?

[Anonymous]

I eat junk food all day every day, but I never gain weight. I don't even truly exercise that much, I just happen to be lucky, and never gain weight.

[EnglishArtsteacher]

Of course it's still unhealthy to have a diet solely consisted of junk food, even if you're skinny. On the contrast, if you're eating unhealthy, but struggling to lose weight, I would say you're probably a healthy person. Junk food will still clog your arteries, regardless of your size.

Some people naturally have a difficult time losing weight, and some don't. I actually don't consider you lucky because you can't even realize how unhealthy you have become, since you're skinny.

Just because you do not gain weight does not mean it is healthy. It is still very unhealthy. You wait when you get to 30 if you still eat junk food all the time you will start putting weight on.

Lol duh your organs can be covered in lard too and that doesn't show on the outside but it's actually more dangerous than outer body fat.. It's pretty gross.

[EllieLexis513]

Yes lol, being thin doesn't mean you're healthy at all.

[GingerGuy]

Yes. You aren't gaining weight but it doesn't mean you're healthy. Lots of overweight people (other than being overweight) are still very healthy. If you get lots of exerciser also you might be ok still but high cholesterol etc will still be there.

[BuchitaBuchys]

Of course it is.

Is it still unhealthy to smoke all the time even though you don't have lung cancer?

[LaVilaine]

Health isn't about weight. You can be skinny and still develop diabetes, hypertension, etc. Eating well and exercising are things that everyone should be doing.

You're not going to be invincible forever. If you keep going at the rate you're going, it will eventually catch up to you.

[karahiri]

It's bad. Outside you look ok, but inside... who knows. You should get a blood panel done.

[Skadouchebag]

There's actually a condition called fat on the inside. Meaning it's possible to have all the health problems of an obese person without actually being fat. so yes its still unhealthy

[skavy]

Yeah, it's still unhealthy. Weight doesn't necessarily determine how healthy nor unhealthy one is.

[snowangle]

Yes it's unhealthy. Weight alone does not determine health.

[bente2]

Yeah it's unhealthy, especially if you don't exercise.

[Bigclit]

yes. you can be skinny and still be unhealthy. Nothing healthy about eating sugary salty greasy fried food all the time.

[Melcart23]

How can you be at least 18 years old and not know this? Do you think the only affect that junk food can have on a human body is weight gain? Of course not.

[Anonymous]

Same like you, I don't exercise and I'm skinny. Although what you might call "junk food" might not be. Only the Americanized versions of each food are junk-food. For example Italian pizza isn't junk food. American pizza is.

[Jeeevan]

Yes, just because you have a good metabolic rate and you look slim doesn't mean everything inside you is the same.

[SlightlyCrazy]

Well your insides won't refoect your outsiders

[anonman32]

yes, i dont think junk food can answer to your nutritional needs man. thats why we call it junk.

[Rocket_Queen]

Yes. It's still pumping your body full of crap

[mutedaisy]

Your organs will be very shitty.

[RJGraveyTrain]

It's still extremely unhealthy, yeah.

[KittieCat]

Yep, you might want to get some blood work done

[helloitsmethere]

I'm guilty of doing this..

[takumii]

Skinny does not equal healthy.

[askuser]

This is like me, but yeah, it's not healthy.

[ConsultantIsBack]

Yeah

[ConsultantIsBack]

But don't let that be an excuse to be fat, that's such a bad idea

[jwhit]

Yup it is.

[Anonymous]

It's unhealthy.
