Consumption of fast foods has gradually become a common lifestyle in Nigeria especially in urban areas and among young people in spite of the associated adverse health consequences. Diet and nutrition along with lifestyle changes are recognized as the principal environmental components affecting a wide range of diseases of public health importance in developing countries. While many Nigerians have been obsessed about weight loss and body shape, not so many have taken time to watch their dietary patterns. This is in view of the fact that more and more Nigerians are getting addicted to the fast food syndrome, coupled with the avalanche of fast food restaurants that are springing up in the cities. However, very few Nigerians have paid attention to the health implications of these food outlets. This research explored the consumption of fast foods and perception of vulnerability to noncommunicable diseases among Nigerian young adults.
