Many Americans may find their bodies flabbier and less healthy when they finally emerge from the Great Quarantine of 2020.
And is it any surprise? Hello, pantry full of snacks and comfort foods. Here’s looking at you, refrigerator packed with meat, cheese and milk.
It’s all so tempting during the coronavirus crisis as people stay at home — bored, anxious and stressed — and seek relief by eating all day. It’s also not surprising that people are buying shelf-stable foods that don’t require a lot of time to prepare, said Dr. Dariush Mozaffarian, dean of the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University in Boston.
Still, food prepared outside the home is generally less healthy than home-cooked meals, so he was optimistic the break from restaurant eating could be positive when it came to nutrition.
“We don’t know, we’ll have to see, but I’m hopeful that people will actually be healthier than they were before. They’re not eating at (restaurants),” Mozaffarian said.
