Study: Almost 70% Of Hospitals Have A Fast Food Restaurant

Nearly 70% of American hospitals contain at least one fast food restaurant, researchers with the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine found. The five most common food joints in hospitals are: Subway; Starbucks; Au Bon Pain; Chick-fil-A; and McDonald’s. “Making fast food like cheeseburgers and fried chicken available in hospitals is hazardous to the health of patients, visitors, and staff,” Dr. Zeeshan Ali said. Eating fast food raises the risk of Type 2 diabetes and heart disease. (Study Finds)
