Before Eating Junk Food, Consider Medical Costs Down The Road

When choosing healthy food and considering cost, it helps to remember what the dentist charges for a filling if I eat junk food, what cholesterol and diabetic prescriptions cost, not to mention the cost of going to the doctor and other medical tests. One co-pay at the doctor's office could have bought good food at the grocery store. Cheap junk food ends up being a lot more expensive than healthy snacks.
