Abstract- With the expansion of the fast-food industry owing to urbanization and changing lifestyles, people are increasingly depending on convenient yet unhealthy food choices. This work explores health consequences related to fast food consumption by adults in Raipur, with drinking pattern, adverse health impacts and level of awareness as focal points. A thorough examination of the association between fast-food consumption and prevalence of lifestyle-related outcome such as diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease and mental disorder was performed. The results of this work suggest that greater attention is needed to the promotion of healthy eating habits in working people and students who are exposed most to temptation to consume ready food, because of a lack of time. The findings of the present study have important public health policy and intervention implications in the promotion of healthy eating behavior and limiting the chronic health outcomes of excessive fast-food consumption.
