7. Canned sausages

Despite the fact that sausages make the best hot dogs, they are still processed foods, which contain a lot of salt, and most of them are smoked to improve their taste. The presence of compounds called nitrates and nitrites, which can be easily transformed into carcinogens once absorbed by our bodies might be the reason why processed meats are usually associated with an increased risk of cancer and diabetes.

Various studies have shown that consuming more saturated fats increases our risk of heart disease by significantly raising our cholesterol levels. Doctors recommend that the necessary amount of calories should include less than 5% calories from saturated fat, and unfortunately, a can of sausages may contain up to 13 grams of fat, of which 4 grams are saturated fats.

If you really want to make some hot dogs or even some grilled sausages, choose fresh ones made with natural ingredients like turkey meat or poultry.

  1. It’s true that vegetables canned with brine are neither healthy nor tasty, but if you drain off the brine and fill the can with water, then pour out the water, you’ll have a vegetable that you can season to your own taste. It works pretty well.

  2. There are all beef and pure pork hot dogs available. Aren’t cows and pigs just as natural as turkeys? Beef and pork hot dogs may contain more fat, but saturated animal fat is good for your brain and cell growth.

    1. The problem is that beef and pork hot dogs are heavily processed and you are eating a lot of toxic. In addition to that natural doesn’t mean free of antibiotics, growth hormones and lungs medication to make that pig or cow fat and big to be able to go to the slaughter. Think about that the next time you buy process food.

      Saturated fat is not good for the brain, it’s healthy cholesterol that is protective of the brain. It is not converted from saturated fat, it is converted by low fats.
      A heart healthy diet helps produce these healthy cholesterols and reduce plaque in the arteries.
      Processed meats of any kind are very bad for multiple organs. The meat we grow in this country is grown and kept in a way that makes it unhealthy to your body.
      Unless you see with your own eyes, the animal where it’s being raised and kept you cannot count on its health or nutrition.

  3. Basically it is telling us that “SALT BAD”. I agree, to much is bad. So read labels and think smart. As my Doctor always tells me… If it taste good spit it out…

  4. I thought I was going to read something new and spectacular..Common sense tells you what to look for on canned foods and I am 84 years of age and have eaten and now am surviving on many types of canned foods and fruits…But thank you for the info?!?

    1. What about Nathan’s Hot Dogs? Bad? Good? In different? If you look at canned fruits most have corn syrup which is especially bad for you from what I comprehend. Sure fresh is best but, I would have to say everything in moderation!

  5. The metal leached from the can is what concerns me. No metal canned food for us but we do use things preserved in glass occasionally
