New information on McDonald's Employee Resources website disuades against fast food although it is meant to be informative NBC News reported Monday.
"Fast foods are quick, reasonably priced, and readily available alternatives to home cooking. While convenient and economical for a busy lifestyle, fast foods are typically high in calories, fat, saturated fat, sugar, and salt and may put people at risk for becoming overweight," a posting on the site said NBC News reported.
"It is hard to eat a healthy diet when you eat at fast-food restaurants often. In general, people with high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease must be very careful about choosing fast food because of its high fat, salt, and sugar levels," the post said NBC News reported.
McDonald's has revamped its menu to include healthier options like oatmeal, grilled chicken, egg whites and real-fruit smoothies.
"Portions of this website continue to be taken entirely out of context," McDonald's said in a statement NBC News reported. "This website provides useful information from respected third-parties about many topics, among them health and wellness. It also includes information from experts about healthy eating and making balanced choices. McDonald's agrees with this advice."
The site has previously suggested employees separate their food into pieces so they can satisfy their hunger cravings, and deal off or send back unused presents for more money.
Employees are also advised to sing to relieve stress and go on two vacations to lessen heart attacks United Press International reported.
The site also previously suggested employees give a week of their pay to their dog walker, income for an evening shift's to their babysitter, and the price of one fitness period.
The tips currently deleted from the site, were published the same day fast food employees fought for higher wages The Huffington Post reported.
Employees went on strike in 100 cities throughout the United States to fight for $15 wages.
