It is a usual trend for sports aficionados to keep awake till late in the night to watch sports.
While watching the sports, it is another habit to indulge in snacks & cold drinks.

Generally, a man requires 1600 calories per day and a female requires 1400 calories every day.
Fat content on these calories should be less than 25%.
However, when we take 10 pieces of potato chips, it contains 54 gms of fat! This is equivalent to 36 calories.
So, when we take chips everyday in large quantities, an average of 40 gm fat or 360 calories are going into the body. This increases the total calories to 2000.
Even when we take fat food items, it disturbs the soundness of sleep!
In India, the average fat content in a person’s daily food is 45%!
