Healthcare expenses are not being spared and individuals are consciously switching to a healthy diet and lifestyle. The diet that we consume on a daily basis has a significant impact on our overall health and well-being. Many restaurants and eateries are now trying to incorporate healthy options into their regular menus. Fast-food giant McDonald’s is also aiming to cater to health-conscious individuals, especially children. They have introduced nutritious options which can be opted as additions to their ‘Happy Meal’.
