Does corn make fat

Answer 1

Too much of anything can be bad for you.

However, corn is a grain and contains many carbohydrates and sugars. It is also a good source of roughage. Many Native American cultures were very dependent on corn as a staple of their diets.

Answer 2

think about it like this: everything you eat has calories in it; calories turn into fat. However, if you exercise, you can burn off the calories before they turn into fat. So if you exercise regularly, you probably wont put on wait from eating sweet corn.

Answer 3

Yeah . . . there is a lot of oil in corn chips. Put a couple of chips on a napkin or a piece of newspaper and come back in an hour or two. You should see an oilstain bigger than the cornchips.

Answer 4

No, not necessarily. It depends - if you eat tons and tons of it, and eat it over your calories burned, then yes. It will make you gain weight. But eating it in moderation and combining it with your calories won't make you fat or anything.

Answer 5

Corn is not a fattening food. It is considered to be a grain which has fiber and antioxidants. If corn is consumed too often, it could add weight to the body.

Answer 6

Corn chips do contain a lot of sodium, fat, and hydrogenated oils. Depending on your metabolic rate, corn chips may make you gain weight.

Answer 7

What makes you fat is eating too many calories - wherever they come from. Sweet corn isn't any better or worse from that perspective. If it fits in your calorie allowance you can have it.
