the charts below show the average percentage in typical 3 meals of three types of nutrients all of which may be unhealthy if eaten too much.
The given pie charts illustrate the proportion of
sodium
, saturated fat and added sugar in different meals in the USA. Such
nutrients might be harmful if consumed in great quantities.

, as a general trend, snacks
don’t include lots of them except added sugar.
With regard to Sodium
, dinner reached the peak by 43%, then
lunch which was consumed by just more than the quarter. Finally
, breakfast along with
snacks
were the least meals in terms of including sodium
with approximately 14%.
Furthermore

. The only difference regarded is that snacks
placed third (a bit more than one-fifth) followed by breakfast (16%).

was the highest, whereas
it was the lowest in the other nutrients. ,Meanwhile breakfast percentage was in the 20s, it has slightly decreased to 19%.Submitted by gamilkhaled3 on
