The deliciousness of pizza captures the taste buds of diners, but many people who pursue a healthy diet love and hate it because of its high calories.
A pizzeria in Chicago has launched ultra-low-calorie pizza to dispel people's guilt about this delicacy.
Ultra-thin crust with various vegetables, the secret of low-calorie pizza. Compared with ordinary pizza, which uses a lot of carbohydrates and cheese, this pizza is obviously healthier. The calories of a large slice of pizza are controlled between 380 and 790 calories.
Low-calorie pizza chef Frank Perez said: "Because the pizza is so thin, we have to move very quickly, and get the pizza to the table in less than ten minutes. Timing is of the essence."
The low-calorie pizza, priced at $12 to $18, has been favored by diners once it was launched. People in the industry are optimistic about this emerging pizza concept and plan to open 50 branches in the United States next year, and then attack overseas markets.
Neil Niami, a low-calorie pizza entrepreneur, said: "We think this is not just a trend, it's a new way of eating an ancient food. A staple that has been around for 100 years, combined in a fun and exciting way. Excited to eat, can reduce calories while retaining the deliciousness."
Pizza has become very popular since it was introduced to the United States. Industry insiders said that just like New York has representative sliced pizza and Chicago has thick crust pizza, Los Angeles should also have pizza that represents the characteristics of local food culture. And this pizza, which is so thin that it can be rolled up, is believed to be famous in a short time.

What damage does a high-calorie diet do to the body?
1. Induce cardiovascular disease:
Many friends have the habit of eating high-calorie diets, because high-calorie diets cannot give you a good sense of fullness, and will make you eat more and more. When these fats cannot be decomposed in time, they will induce cardiovascular stenosis, and thus suffer from high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease.
2. Slow response:
Friends who often ate a high-calorie diet were more clumsy than those who ate a healthy diet, especially in terms of brain responses. This is due to the lack of vitamins and minerals in fresh vegetables, which are of great help to our health. So often eating high-calorie foods will make you stupid.
3. Change body shape:
We all know that our body cannot consume the high calories in the diet in time, and these excess calories will be converted into fat and accumulated in various parts of our body. When you choose a high-calorie diet for a long time, it will also cause fat to appear on the internal organs, which will not only affect your own figure but also endanger your health.
