On hearing the name of samosa and Jalebi, every Indian's eyes light up. On the other hand, pizza, this western dish, is on top of every party, outing and children's favourite list these days. But have you ever wondered what effect these delicious things have on our body? Which is the most harmful among these in terms of health. Hot samosa, juicy Jalebi or cheese filled pizza?

Nutritionist Dr. Karuna Chaturvedi says that there is a story behind every food item. It affects not just the taste, but nutrition and health. So let's know what is more dangerous in this triangle of taste. Samosa
Samosa is the most popular street food of India. Potato, spices and flour are used in it and then it is deep fried.
Due to refined flour and deep frying, it contains more trans fat which increases cholesterol.
A samosa contains about 300 calories.
It can produce carcinogenic elements when fried in repeatedly heated oil.
Jalebi
The refined sugar present in jalebi makes it dangerous.
A jalebi contains 100-150 calories, but it does not contain any fiber or protein.

A slice of pizza contains 250-350 calories.
It contains more saturated fat, sodium and processed ingredients.
It can cause blood pressure, heart diseases, and weight gain.
