Why should very fried food be limited?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It may contain high fat and calories

Regularly eating large quantities of such foods may make it harder to maintain energy balance and can contribute to excessive weight gain and poor cardiovascular health. The exact nutrient content depends on the food, but option C gives the valid general reason for limiting it.
