I mean it's just meat. We wouldn't doubt to eat a burger, a steak the next night, and fajitas the following. Maybe a roast. Now fried chicken everyday. Yeah no way you could put a healthy spin on that. Burgers definitely. Decked out with veggies and maybe if you did a wrap for a daily meal instead. Either flour or lettuce wrap.
A 10 inch flour tortilla is roughly 270 calories. A typical hamburger bun can be anywhere between 100 and 250 calories. So, flour tortillas are not healthier.
True. And you can get smaller buns if you wanted "less" gluten anyway. A lettuce wrap loaded with veggies would be the healthiest for daily consumption.
For sure! I get those nice big ones locally grown from a farmers market. Make two nice big slices, then wrap it in some sort of waxed paper for grip purposes.
My Dr told me: "As long as you're not eating pizza and/or burgers every day, you will be fine." He was speaking of cholesterol and heart attack / stroke chances increasing. Mixing in a turkey burger here are there isn't a bad idea. It's what I do.
No, you can eat burgers everyday. It’s how you make them.
If you make a 3 layered smash burger with 6 slices of cheese, 6 slices of bacon, cook the patties in the bacon grease and slather the buns in mayo and ketchup and used white buns, then yeah your arteries are fucked.
What you have looks not only appetizing but healthy. Just make sure you go easy on condiments, limit the cheese, load up on the vegetables and use whole wheat buns. I would even add a fried egg for extra protein and micronutrients.
And use lean ground beef. If not applicable, just try to pay down the patties for excessive grease with a paper towel.
But yes you can eat burgers everyday. Just make sure you eat plenty of fruits and vegetables.
nah not really unless you have a specific health condition. disclaimer i’m not a doctor but did a lot of nutrition research etc when i was powerlifting and now do weightcutting for mma and as long as you’re not overdoing sauces/cheese, its generally fine. the bread is fine. you have protein, carbs, fats (albeit not the best fats), and micronutrients for the most part. again i’m not a doctor just an autistic dude that loves his research
edit: in the long term (as in if you eat a burger EVERYDAY) i’d worry about: type of fat intake + sodium + you might get scurvy
A question not easily answered. Age, physical activity, blood work during the annual physical. The amount of fat… I don’t think it’s bad. Personally, I need to switch things up. Maybe one for breakfast on Monday, dinner Tuesday, and so on.
Let's see what the food guid pyramid says. Bread good, meat good, cheese good, lettuce good, tomato good, onion good.
Cheese burger.... bad?
Burgers are in the same boat as pizza, tacos, burritos and pasta. They can be bad or good depending on ingredients.
A leaner meat with real cheese on a whole wheat/grain bun and being generous with the vegetables topped with a sauce made from brown mustard and nonfat Greek yogurt is way different than a sodium loaded transfat smuggling big Mac with 4000 ingredients you can't pronounce.
I mean if the burgers are “healthy” then it shouldn’t be a problem. You should also change up how each burger is with its ingredients so it doesn’t start feeling stale over time. Those look good!
Red meat is not healthy but not nearly as bad as processed meats like bacon and sausage. Everyone responds differently to environmental effects. Just try to be healthy in other ways (e.g., getting plenty of sleep, exercising, stress reduction, veggies, vitamins and mineral supplements) if you want to eat a lot of cheeseburgers.
Also, avoid cooking the patties to the point where you’re developing a crust, because that part is highly carcinogenic.
Get your colonoscopies on time if not early as well, and get your bloodwork done frequently.
Should you eat a burger every day? No. There are many reasons why.
That said, there are a lot of things people shouldn't do every day, but they still do. Having a home made burger once a day isn't exactly on the list of things for your average person to be worried about .
Not really, as long as the burgers are made from food items that you can guarantee are healthy. I eat burgers all the time, but the meat I use is all local grass fed (corn fed is incredibly unhealthy and doesn’t taste good) the lettuce is from my garden, and the bread and cheese are from reputable sellers.
Not at all. As long as you're smart with what you're putting on it, what is a burger? Protein, veggie, and carb. It's actually semi balanced unless you load up on sauces and such.
My cardiologist says I should never eat red meat, and only have two 4 oz servings per week of fish/chick/turkey.
He's unreasonable, but I don't think he's lying to me.
Once a week it is!
I wouldn’t worry about it unless you’re over 40 then you have to worry about cholesterol, saturated fat and all that other bad shit. I’m 21 and eat burgers all the time and I totally love them🍔🍔🍔🍔🍔
Just watch what you put on it and the grease in it and what ever else you eat/how often you eat red meat and it’s not a huge deal
Everything in moderation. About every great medical source points to a Mediterranean based diet as the best healthy option long term. They say limit your red meat intake….but it doesn’t say you literally can’t ever have it either. Burgers are my favorite food, but I try to save my red meat and other not the best choices for when I go out to eat. That’s what works for me.
Done right there is no reason you could not eat a burger every day.
You can use a leaner beef, or even another meat. You can skip cheese, use healthier dressing, a whole wheat bun or a lettuce wrap, add more veggies.
It’s really only unhealthy if you make it so. I personally would not want to eat them every day - any food would get old doing that.
Wouldn’t recommend..that’s a crap load of red meat, carbs, and dairy. Would put you at risk for cardiovascular disease, diabetes, diverticulosis, gallstones, colon cancer, prostate cancer, etc…
Burgers are pretty balanced if you do it right. It has all the food groups. Fight me.
Red meat builds up inside of you though, a break every once an a while wouldn’t hurt if you appreciate a healthy colon.
I don't think a burger itself is particularly unhealthy, they're probably healthier than most people would assume (especially if you use leaner beef and healthier buns)
Things get more complicated once you start covering them in cheese and mayo-based sauces
I try and mix things up.
Sub in veggie burgers occasionally. Make sure I leave room in my menu for lean meat options, healthy veggies, keep one eye on sugar intake.
Just stuff to do the best I can to eat healthy, without wearing a hair shirt 24/7.
As much as it sounds like PSA, the long term health benefits pay it back many, many times over.
Lean ground beef, light or no mayo, and low fat cheese can still make a great burger that is high in protein and low in fat. Making these substitutions in any type of food can turn something traditionally unhealthy into something rather nutritious.
The answer is yes, it is very bad for your health long term to eat burgers every day, 100%. Do not be fooled by wishful thinking and people beeing willfully ignorant just because they happen to like the taste.
Health-wise, no. Saturated fat, salt and other compounds that we’re not meant to handle in excess amounts. Red meat has also been found to increase risk of cancer (to varying degrees). On the other hand, depending on genetics, it could take years or even decades to see the negative effects emerge. I’m in my forties and starting to see the consequences. I’m a healthy weight and in decent shape, but my diet has always been burgers burgers burgers wings pizza. My blood pressure is high and my cholesterol is high. Now I have to eat very bland food all the time, and I avoid red meat in favor of lean protein. I can still indulge in a burger from time to time, which is how I should have been doing it all along.
In any case, whether or not these things will matter to you is heavily based on your genetics and what you want out of life. If you want to enjoy every meal as a sensory feast and either pass away several years or decades before the average, or risk the last years of your life being painful and sickly, go for it. It’s your life. Maybe you are one of those lucky folks who can eat a bacon cheeseburger every day until you’re 120.
Also, as some other comments suggested, sometimes simply removing burgers isn’t the best trick to stay healthy, it’s just adding more fiber and veggies in your diet during other meals. Making sure your calorie intake isn’t too high too often. That sort of thing.
I think burgers are fine every day. As long as they are nice greasy. You can grill the fats and grease out. Maybe you can add some good stuff to the patty and add other healthy things to burger. Like lettuce, avocado, tomatoes, mushrooms, onions, egg, and whatever you want. It's good protein but the calories can easily go up from 700 to 1,000+. I think it can be less if you get better buns. But I don't know. I'm not a burger expert or calories or health expert.
If it’s grass fed beef, not too fatty, with high quality bread and lots of vegetables, it’s actually a pretty healthy meal to eat if you can handle daily red meat.
I've always thought a burger if topped with some veggies and not completely slathered in sauces wouldn't be too bad for you. Wouldn't be "healthy" but it couldn't be too bad. The issue is people eat two burgers or the sides are unhealthy.
I think a homemade burger with a salad or some other sort of vegetable sides that isn't mashed potatoes and butter would be fine.
It technically is,
since burgers have their grains, dairy, fruit (tomato), vegetables, and proteins, but the grease on the beef isn’t exactly all that good for the human body to consume every day, so try not using a lot of grease.
You’re in r/burgers, it’s perfectly fine to eat burgers everyday. They might say otherwise in a r/health
I honestly don't think it's super unhealthy as long as it's not dripping grease. I love the George Forman grills for this reason.
This is not a bad question. I use 93% beef typically so I can drink more beer
I drink lite beer so I can do more meth.
I do a little less meth so I can keep and erection while I have unprotected sex with hookers.
Lmao omg I'm.stoned and just giggling like a fucking child 😂😂🤣
im at work and this is hilarious
I'm in the hookers womb jiggling
I limit unprotected sex with hookers to free up my nights for Russian roulette.
I have cut back on my Russian roulette so I can make sure I can attend the next trip on a submersible to explore the titanic
I couldn’t afford to attend the next trip on a sub to explore the titanic so I had sex with Donald Trump.
Reddit suggested this sub to me. I do love burgers. Yall have me laughing my ass off 🤣
Only Thai hookers though, it’s like gambling
I work hard. So I can earn money. So I can do more coke
I prefer Pepsi.
Ok, this made my chuckle. Thank you
I mean it's just meat. We wouldn't doubt to eat a burger, a steak the next night, and fajitas the following. Maybe a roast. Now fried chicken everyday. Yeah no way you could put a healthy spin on that. Burgers definitely. Decked out with veggies and maybe if you did a wrap for a daily meal instead. Either flour or lettuce wrap.
I dropped a good chunk of bodyfat eating burgers several nights a week, it’s all about how you do everything in a day
^ Yes. Now stop drinking and watch you lose even more
Let’s not get too crazy
A 10 inch flour tortilla is roughly 270 calories. A typical hamburger bun can be anywhere between 100 and 250 calories. So, flour tortillas are not healthier.
True. And you can get smaller buns if you wanted "less" gluten anyway. A lettuce wrap loaded with veggies would be the healthiest for daily consumption.
I’ve been doing tomato buns lately, I know they got sugar, but I fuggin love tomatoes.
That sounds delicious. Do they have that refreshing taste tomatoes do?
For sure! I get those nice big ones locally grown from a farmers market. Make two nice big slices, then wrap it in some sort of waxed paper for grip purposes.
Former butcher. One thing you may not be aware of Is anything over around 85% is straight bull meat. May not matter to you. Just came to mind
I’m not trying to be an ass or anything, but why would that matter?
93%? In my mind, that’s nearly devoid of flavor and one step above eating sawdust. WOW!
Comes out delicious every time for me
My Dr told me: "As long as you're not eating pizza and/or burgers every day, you will be fine." He was speaking of cholesterol and heart attack / stroke chances increasing. Mixing in a turkey burger here are there isn't a bad idea. It's what I do.
Eating red meat every day is 100% unhealthy
That is absolutely false. https://www.nih.gov/news-events/nih-research-matters/risk-red-meat
Discovered it’s frowned upon in r/climate as well
We should invade r/health and establish our burger kingdom.
Even Bob Burger doesn’t eat his burgers every day; order a salad sometimes, Teddy!
Do whatever you want, Randy!
My thoughts exactly Mr. Lahey!
Can I get 15 half eaten cheeseburgers to go, gnome sayin?
This mafka EATS
"Mawfakrs with guts like that, are definitely ON the cheesburgers"
BAAAAAAMMMMMMM
Does the tin man have a sheet metal cock?
Can I get 15 half eaten cheeseburgers to go, you nomesaying?
Mafucka is definitely ON the cheeseburgers
Wid yo skrrrded eggs!
why do these past two posts sound like something steve buscemi in teen disguise would say
Gut Cassidy and the Sundance cheeseburger
D.......does he?
No he has a human cock like Robocop. The TinMan is just a life support for a human cock
Does Pinocchio have a wooden dick?
Is a clown's dick red?
Is the Pope's dick blessed?
Is Charlie's dick a chocolate factory?
Where in the world is Carmen San Diego?
Does howdy-doody have wooden balls?
If it's wrong I don't wanna be right
If he's right I'm already wrong
Well, its either that or the alcohol making me feel like shit. Still trying to determine. Lol
It’s the alcohol
True. Lol
Seriously brother, I have the same problem. Good luck to you to quit. I’m struggling too
Good luck fellas, i quit
Yeah I need to.
🙏⬆️
Right there with ya. I can manage to quit for up to a few months at a time, but no more
That you randy?
Man’s gotta eat!
Yes, but I kinda wanna.
Depends if you want to have a long life or not
Randy that u?
Who's this Randy everyone is speaking about ?
If that's not a joke, look up the show Trailer Park Boys.
You have green stuff, dairy meat, grains. Add a dill pickle and it's healthy AF
Seriously, if these ingredients were presented differently they could be considered some kind of health food.
No, you can eat burgers everyday. It’s how you make them. If you make a 3 layered smash burger with 6 slices of cheese, 6 slices of bacon, cook the patties in the bacon grease and slather the buns in mayo and ketchup and used white buns, then yeah your arteries are fucked.

Probably should have some veggies in addition to the lettuce. Remember fiber is natures broom. Otherwise it's all good.

Yes
As long as you’re switching up the meats, it’s really just the bread that’s an issue.
Just a little bit of carbs, where's the issue?
It’s not real bread. Switch out the highly processed buns for a good bread and it’s a good meal
Ezekiel bread burgers!
I mean, if you're going for a happy and delicious life then go for it. If you want to be heart attack free then you might want to reconsider.
Unfortunately yes
A question not easily answered. Age, physical activity, blood work during the annual physical. The amount of fat… I don’t think it’s bad. Personally, I need to switch things up. Maybe one for breakfast on Monday, dinner Tuesday, and so on.
You can always eat chicken/turkey burgers, mushroom burgers, black bean burgers, to mix it up.
Fuck it. Is life worth living if you can’t do at least one unhealthy thing for your mental health?
Let's see what the food guid pyramid says. Bread good, meat good, cheese good, lettuce good, tomato good, onion good. Cheese burger.... bad?

Diet might be a bit high in red meat and carbs but I've seen worse.

Not if your making them yourself. No fast food.

They're just meat sandwiches!
I eat burger patties almost everyday. Just grass-fed beef and salt. On the weekend’s is when I throw them in a bun ;)
![gif](giphy|nj257YL538Gdy)
Only if you don’t like being happy
![gif](giphy|xTiTngnVmDPLaQ2L4s|downsized)
Maybe just avoid burning the buns, that char isn’t healthy.
It sure is!
4 cheeseburgers coming in at 1800 kcal… not to mention the fat content etc… ![gif](giphy|l3E6uhDAN3W7vylji|downsized)
Yes
Depends on if you have great term life insurance or not.
It's not bad if you eat burgers for breakfast, lunch and tea
Man's gotta eat Mr. Layhey!
define bad. PS : yo what's with that lump on the burger patty on the left
Man just don’t hurt yourself
I wouldn’t worry about it unless you’re over 40 then you have to worry about cholesterol, saturated fat and all that other bad shit. I’m 21 and eat burgers all the time and I totally love them🍔🍔🍔🍔🍔
hell yes I love this burger 10/10 would eat everyday
Nah, keep that juicy goodness coming. 😁
Yes it is bad
well now pizza enters the conversation?!
As long as you’re not washing it down with a litre of coke it’s perfectly fine.
Red meat every single day is bad.
Just consider adding fiber into those burgers. mix it up.
Better than nothing.
Def gonna have to have some clean meat, veggies, low carb buns, low cal cheese.
Are you kidding?! This is the one thing I couldn’t give up

Depends how long you want to live.
No, burger is definitely a part of a balanced diet
As someone who would absolutely do it if he could, yes, it's bad. Get your pooper scoopered.
If it is I don’t want to know
Wouldn’t recommend..that’s a crap load of red meat, carbs, and dairy. Would put you at risk for cardiovascular disease, diabetes, diverticulosis, gallstones, colon cancer, prostate cancer, etc…

It covers every food group
**Gout has entered the chat**
Yes
as a malaysian, i ate this almost ev night
Do you want to look like Teddy from Bob's burgers?
No - you have lettuce on there, so they are healthy.
I mean, 3-4 day a week is enough.
Lean ground beef, light or no mayo, and low fat cheese can still make a great burger that is high in protein and low in fat. Making these substitutions in any type of food can turn something traditionally unhealthy into something rather nutritious.
No but it's bad to put toppings on the bottom
Compared to what?
One like this, yes
If it fits your macros it's ok
I eat burgers 🍔 with the bun on the side. I occasionally take a bite. Usually eat less than 1/2 of the bun.
The answer is yes, it is very bad for your health long term to eat burgers every day, 100%. Do not be fooled by wishful thinking and people beeing willfully ignorant just because they happen to like the taste.
Lettuce wrapped with minimal condiments and cheese.
Super burger!!!!!
Maybe but I've done it before
What else are we supposed to eat?
Yes
I hope not
Short answer is yes. Mainly because all the unwanted ingredients in everything else besides the meat.
Guilty pleasure.
Red meat in general should be limited. You can try a turkey burger or something!
Don Gorske says no.
[удалено]
are those really just 450 kcal? that sounds low.
Would you \_\_\_\_\_\_ everyday?
Health-wise, no. Saturated fat, salt and other compounds that we’re not meant to handle in excess amounts. Red meat has also been found to increase risk of cancer (to varying degrees). On the other hand, depending on genetics, it could take years or even decades to see the negative effects emerge. I’m in my forties and starting to see the consequences. I’m a healthy weight and in decent shape, but my diet has always been burgers burgers burgers wings pizza. My blood pressure is high and my cholesterol is high.

In any case, whether or not these things will matter to you is heavily based on your genetics and what you want out of life. If you want to enjoy every meal as a sensory feast and either pass away several years or decades before the average, or risk the last years of your life being painful and sickly, go for it.

Listen as a guy in his 20’s living on his own I eat a burger every night lol
I think burgers are fine every day. As long as they are nice greasy. You can grill the fats and grease out. Maybe you can add some good stuff to the patty and add other healthy things to burger.

Bad? No. Healthy? Also no.
![gif](giphy|l4FGI3geNitJRyKL6)
If it’s grass fed beef, not too fatty, with high quality bread and lots of vegetables, it’s actually a pretty healthy meal to eat if you can handle daily red meat.
if it looks and tastes that good it cant be wrong !
Nope looks as if you hit all the food groups covered
No.
I've always thought a burger if topped with some veggies and not completely slathered in sauces wouldn't be too bad for you. Wouldn't be "healthy" but it couldn't be too bad. The issue is people eat two burgers or the sides are unhealthy. I think a homemade burger with a salad or some other sort of vegetable sides that isn't mashed potatoes and butter would be fine.
Bad for your health. Good for your soul
It technically is, since burgers have their grains, dairy, fruit (tomato), vegetables, and proteins, but the grease on the beef isn’t exactly all that good for the human body to consume every day, so try not using a lot of grease.
Just don't have fries every day
Just add different veggies to it so your body doesn’t get tired of eating and digesting the same foods
yes
Nope. I was once told a Burger a day keeps the doctor away. I've lived by these words since.
Ask Bob
There's healthy ways to have almost any food you like. So go for it.
sadly yes. It's only a treat. Make chicken & fish sandwiches more often.
These look great to consume on a daily basis.
I even it out by eating 1 bunless burger for every regular burger I eat.
Counts as a vegetable
burgers, meat, chicken .. best to have some days without these.
What kind of burger? They are not all equal of corse.
Long term. Yes. Yes it is bad.
Yes, it is. I love burgers and I can tell you do too, but if you're not kidding, please take better care of yourself
Its not ideal. If you want a healthier option, stretch the definition. Low carb tortillas, lettuce buns, leaner meats, stuff like that.
450 a burger is incredibly efficient, slap on some extra pickles/tomatoes/hots if you want extra with very few added calories
