When talking about healthy foods, we basically mean ones that reduce risk of inflammation, keeping us healthy. While most takeaways are known to be unhealthy, I always tell my clients to be picky by choosing the nutritional value. Fish and chips is a great takeaway choice because fish can supply nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids and minerals, such as, potassium, zinc, and iron. On the other hand, potatoes have fiber that can keep you satisfied for longer, helping avoid overeating. The combination contains pretty low amounts of saturated fat and can offer moderate energy, especially when cooked healthily. For a sure bet on your health, I advise my clients to order a kid’s chips serving and non-battered fish. You can also go for baked potatoes and salmon
