First Fast Food Chicken Caesar Salad

The culprit: McDonald premium grilled chicken Caesar salad contains 890 milligrams of sodium, more than half the recommended daily limit. And that's not the Caesar dressing, which can add up to another 500 mg. (Select Italy's low in fat and it is even higher than 30%!) These ready-to-go salads, says Lona Sandon, RD, assistant professor of clinical nutrition at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, "the worst is usually chicken often cooked in a marinade high in sodium taste and can also be injected with a solution of sodium to keep the meat moist. "

Smart choice: Avoid salads that come and go the burger with a salad on the side. A normal McDonald burger has 520 mg of sodium (250 calories, 9 g fat), add the salad (20 calories, 0 g fat, 10 mg sodium) or a snack-size fruit and walnut salad (210 calories , 8 g fat, 60 mg sodium).
