During this quarantine I have eaten a few of Meals on Wheels. I was shocked at how bad the food is, small portions of very low quality food, highly processed meat like items.

A recent study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) provides evidence that people who ate the largest amounts of added sugar had the highest blood triglyceride levels and the lowest HDL (good) cholesterol levels. In 2023, the BMJ listed additional harms. Go here to read more:
