Can Instant Noodles Be Considered Healthy? Nutritionist Explains:

We all know instant noodles contain maida (all-purpose flour), which traditionally is considered unhealthy. To make maida, wheat is refined, eliminating fibre, protein, and other crucial vitamins and minerals. This further makes the dish starch-loaded, making it tough to digest. According to Nutritionist Mohita, "It's true maida lacks nutrients. But if you compensate it with enough fibre and protein, instant noodles turn healthier for consumption." This simply means you need to load your Maggi with vegetables, chicken, eggs, etc., to include in your healthy diet regime. "Chicken Maggi has 30 grams of protein, veg Maggi has 20 grams of protein, and Egg Maggi has 23 grams," the expert explains.
