Instant noodles aren't healthy but the fish and veggies are.

@May2k8 Has long as your health is good I wouldn't worry about it. However, there may be ingredients in the soup that may not be so good for your heath. Vegetables are good. Meat? Noodles?

You are right, if there is no other choice then we have to eat the instant food.

I mix vegetables with my instant ramen. I don’t know if it makes any difference at all, nutrient-wise.

Umm I don't know. May be not because it has preservatives yet we tend to consume it.

I like instant food, besides being practical and only in 3 minutes ready to eat when we are hungry.

I think it is not healthy anymore since they put a lot of other ingredients that are there to preserve the noodles but is harmful to our body when taken in large amounts. These food products are just convenient way to suffice our hunger but in the end some of the preservatives mixed with this food may be harmful to us in the long run.

But if we consume it according to the needs of our body I guess it's okay for health as long as the preservative does not damage one of our organs.

I think it is very rare that instant foods have something good for our health. Many have top much oil or spices. Many have too many classes of preservatives. There could be a few with some proteins or vitamins but not as much as from good sources of fruits, vegetables and pulses etc.

Very bad for your health because it contains salt and MSG (monosodium glutamate). Also, it can lead to different types of cancer.

I think if a little might not cause cancer.

Regular noodles are good, but instant noodles I don't know and I like to eat all types.

We need to consume them sparingly. I guess instant noodles and other preserves have a good amount of sodium.

@ZedSmart yes most of the instant foods have extra sodium. So we should use them very less.

Maybe if we consume it must be in accordance with the sodium contained in our body, then for people who have more sodium then the people should not be too often eating instant noodles.

@May2k8 Exactly. I do sometimes eat instant noodles but not in regular basis. If I have enough time, I'll cook for my own.
