What Diet Experts Eat at McDonald's

There's no doubt that fast food has been a major contributor to the obesity epidemic in America and around the world. But the truth is there are healthier options, if you're in a pinch or have an undeniable craving. Health experts say these 5 fast food options are the healthiest options. 

1. Traveling? Need breakfast on the go and McDonald's is the only place? Get a coffee and an Egg McMuffin. The sandwich is only about 300 calories and eat the whole egg version because the protein is high and will keep you fuller as well as give you energy for your travels ahead. 

2. Craving a burger? Get a kid's meal comprised of a hamburger, small fry, bottle of water and Cuties Clementines. 

3. The best option for chicken is the grilled chicken sandwich without the bun and mayo. Holding these portions reduces the amount of fat to 7.5 grams and cuts 450mg of sodium, believe it or not. 

4. Want to stick to a salad? It's simple, get the side salad with grilled chicken with a healthier dressing choice such as balsamic or italian. 

5. Looking for a light dinner? Get the McDonald's premium McWrap Southwest Grilled Chicken sandwich. Without the ranch dressing, tortilla strips and cheese, this wrap only has about 380 calories. Add a side of apple slices and you have a quick and well-balanced meal.
