These industrial cakes that we have all eaten at least once in our lives are the worst on the market according to a doctor. They are bad for your health and make you fat. Do not give it to your children!
THE industrial cakes are less good for your health than homemade cakes, that’s a fact. Recently the magazine 60 Million consumers has thus pinpointed certain well-known brands by establishing a classification of worst cakes for our health. But in the shelves dedicated to snacks in our supermarkets, there is one that is even worse for your health than the others according to the Dr Jimmy Mohammed, general practitioner : strawberry, orange or raspberry, these are the Pim’s of Lu. If you too are a fan of these biscuits which reveal a fruit heart and a soft sponge cake under a thin chocolate shell, then you would do well to think twice before biting into them.
For starters, it’s about industrial cakes “super sweet” according to the doctor. While most commercial cakes are, only 2 Pim’s cakes contain no less than “12 grams of sugar, either two sugar cubes or one tablespoon of powdered sugar” warns the general practitioner, who readily admits having eaten it himself before looking into their composition. However, we know that we rarely eat only 2 cakes, at least 4 or even the whole package for the greediest. This snack then explode our sugar intake for the day and therefore negates the beneficial effects of a healthy diet in parallel. Worse still, he explains to us that the sugar they contain pushes us to eat more and more of them and that they are full of additives. “You make yourself sick with this kind of product”he warns us, before specifying that he will never consume more of it and that he advises never to give it to children.

Pim’s: this hidden sugar that makes us eat (and grow) always more
If the exaggerated quantity of sugar present in the Pim’s makes you fat because the sugar turns into fat in the body, it is not the worst with these cakes from our childhood according to the doctor. It also alerts to the presence of glucose fructose syrup in these cakes. In addition to being sugar, it is a syrup that prevents satiety. It is thanks to him that we end up swallowing the whole package of Pim’s without ever being disgusted. So you can eat as much as you want, you will never be satisfied!
“10 additives in one cake”
Like most processed foods, Pim’s also contain additives of no health interest, but above all, there are no less than 10 in them. It is enormous. The only interest in their presence is the fact of “to make a product that is bad, good in the mouth” explains the doctor who points out that “it’s just chemistry”. A good reason to move on from this taste pleasure which ultimately hides a food that is very bad for our health and our nutritional balance.
