Tag: Takis health risks

According to Healthline, Takis are high in calories, fat, carbs, and sodium but lack essential nutrients, despite some minor amounts of calcium and iron. This raises the question: are there any healthy ingredients in Takis, or is their intense flavor the primary selling point?

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), excessive sodium intake can increase blood pressure, a major risk factor for heart disease. This raises concerns about high-sodium snacks like Takis and their supposed comparison to regular potato chips. Are Takis truly better for you than regular chips, or is this a myth?

Despite a viral flurry of social media posts claiming otherwise, there is no nationwide ban on the popular rolled tortilla chip, Takis. The misconception that Takis are being banned stems from a combination of isolated school policies, ingredient-focused legislative efforts, and widespread online misinformation.
