Take a look at the quantity of salt sodium chloride in just one medium sized indomie (1680mg),which is equivalent to 1.68g.Bear in mind that this composition alone is for the noddle and the salt in the spice not added yet which could even be twice. This is dangerous for the populace including the so called healthy population because it will lead to ill heath such as hypertension, heart failure resulting from water retention.
Why then has the NAFDAC allowed this ill foods to be sold to the public without caution to say the least.

I eat the smallest size noodle, one pack with lots of veggies and proteins and even at that, I don't use the whole seasoning.

I use to eat two small packs before, I stopped cause after eating it, my urine would b come so yellow.

So instead of two, I eat one and substitute with lots of veggies and proteins.

There's just something about indomie noodles that makes it different from others

As for me I always notice that anytime I eat indomie my urine always turns out very yellow like (deep yellow)

I suspect that they are adding colouring to the Noddles or its make with refined Palm oil

There's a spike in such illnesses like hypertension, diabetes, liver/stomach cancer and postrate cancer.. Look around, you must know somebody around you that has just died of any of these or suffering from those at the moment the. It was not like this before..
The rate at which these killers are diagnosed these days is so rampant and so frequent, you need nobody to tell you that something has been introduced into the food chain in this country! I used to suspect the inordinate use of chemical fertilizers. But then seeing how useless NAFDAC has become post Akunyili, I suspect widely used foods and drinks like this indomie noodles, soft drinks like Coca-Cola etc. Even those who worry about our population might have taken matters into their own hands..
They're no quality standards nor inspections because the staffs at NAFDAC and SON were recruited just to fill up positions with no reference to good qualifications. The net effects can be seen as these deseases that used to be rare have become the normal killers these days..

I stopped eating it. I only do on very few occasions but then I make sure I parboil and drain it to get rid of the additives before the final cooking. Though I'll stop it finally that is if I haven't already.

I've been telling people about the dangers of eating and giving their children noodles because apart from the high sodium content, it also contains a chemical additive known as serotonin ( I hope I got that right) which is what gives noodles its curly form and this has a bad effect in the body.

Serotonin disrupts the body's ability to absorb healthy nutrients from other foods as it blocks the bodys receptors that help in absorbs quality nutrients which makes it very detrimental to the overall well being.

I warn mothers who resort to it as a quick fix for childrens breakfast. While some have stopped giving their babies, some keep saying theyve been advised to add eggs and veggies to combat whatever side effect there is but this is not true at it doesn't work.

I hope they listen.

Is it me or is there an increase in preservatives on most food items? Tasted one of those stick sweets given to my little cousin and the first thing was a chemical taste, the Spagetti & indomie are even worse, I can smell the preservatives on most without opening the packages. Avoid anything pasta for your own good.

Baba the sodium is the koko, forget the cl-. Na is what leads to the water retention in the body not even cl-. That's why some antihypertensives act by excreting Na. Know this and know a healthy living

It is not 1.68kg, it is 1.68g.
If a 1.68kg of salt is used in such a pack of 100g, then what will the weight be?

I understand you well though…
But whenever I want to prepare mine, if it's more than one pack, I use all chilli but one pack of its seasoning.
Then, I slice up fresh tomatoes, fresh pepper, garlic, onion and add vegetable oil, curry, thyme as additional seasonings.
Trust me, its noodle taste would have changed.

Re: Noodles (indomies) Dangerous For Health (pics) by missjekyll: 2:44pm On Mar 13, 2021
Poster that is a humongous amount of salt,I tell you. All that salt is for everything seasoning and noodles themselves.

I got very angry when they were allowed to sell hungry man size ,orobo coke and all the other supersized junk foods.

Can we stop please?

Please stop panicking and stop misunderstanding......

The salt in indomie isn't in the noodles itself, it's in the follow come seasoning and it's not just anyhow salt it's sea salt which is way better and more flavourful than the commercially sold iodized table salt. (The purpose of the salt is to prserve and to add flavour and there isn't any point preserving something that's already been dehydrated)

Now when preparing noodles or pasta in general you aren't ment to allow the water dry while cooking else all the flavour and salt and everything would be too concentrated and just taste like trash to a normal humans tongue (we nigerians are not on this category).

What you're ment to do is put the heat on medium low and cook just until the noodle or pasta is tender but still firm, at this point your noodle/pasta is done so all you do now is drain and enjoy

KAPISH?!!

Next time just ask what it means and someone would be kind enough to explain.

Peace
