Instant noodles, while cheap and easy to prepare, also have a bad reputation for being unhealthy. Everyone can agree that instant noodles are delicious but have preservatives that are not exactly beneficial for our bodies.
After you’re finished reading this article, you’ll probably want to cut back on your instant noodle eating.
Maybe you’ll even swear off instant noodles altogether.
As many people know, instant noodles are chemically preserved so they can stay on the store shelves for a long time before going bad.
But no one knows what happens to noodles as they are processed by our digestive system.
Dr. Braden Kuo of the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, conducted a recent experiment in which he used a camera the size of a pill to survey the insides of a stomach as it digests instant noodles.
For comparison, he had his test subjects eat ramen made with natural ingredients on a different day.
What he discovered was shocking.
According to the doctor, the stomach contracted back-and-forth as it tried to grind the ramen noodles.
He discovered after 1 – 2 hours that the processed ramen noodles took more time to digest than the naturally-made noodles.
