Top 4 Lies About Nutrition That You Actually Believe In

The world of nutrition is flooded with lies. He is full of misconceptions, wrong names, bad science and greedy companies who are trying to penetrate their arms even more in your wallet.

So, it’s time to stop that. I want to show you and bring to the light 4 biggest lies about nutrition, supported by research evidence and to show you the truth. If your current beliefs are rattled, join me to expose these four common lies to you:

“Saturated fats are bad for your heart”

Whole life they spoke to you that eating foods with high fat is bad for your heart and your cholesterol. Butter, cream, cheese, steaks and all your favorite meat products slowly take you to impending heart attack.

Research: In fact, there could be further from the truth. A study made together with another 21 studies of more than 350,000 people, of whom 11,000 had heart disease, which took place almost 14 years. Conclusion? There is no correlation between eating saturated fat and heart disease.

So maybe sometimes when you go out order greasy fried steak and enjoy.

“Carbohydrates make fat”

You’ve already done it. You have felt the feeling of bloating, guilt after taking a piece of toast with your breakfast. Or, when the basket on the table staring at you shouting, “Eat me, eat me” with a soft, gentle voice.

But do you actually have to feel bad and to worry about the effect of carbohydrates on your waist? If you like to destroy yourself with maple syrup, reduce weight with pancakes or Twix snack throughout the day. Yes, it is more likely that you will hook-up your fat.

But if you consciously try to eat cereals, minimally processed carbohydrates with one ingredient, then you should not feel guilty. Since, however, they are naturally occurring foods. They grow and we eat them. As long as you are smart about your carbs, they will not produce fat. And they may be that energy boost that you need.

“Fruit juice is healthy”

Have you ever drank one of those fruit juices that are constantly advertised in supermarkets? Those who boast that there are more than 15 fruits in them, half a cabbage and a little spinach? Most of these products, as they say, contain a lot of fruit. But that does not make them healthy.

Think about it this way: Could you eat all that fruit if it was presented in front to you? Can you eat five crushed oranges that you have planned to make your juice? Or two bananas, apple, mango and peach, which are used in your drink? Probably not. But when it comes to their drinking, your body reacts differently. Therefore, because the body does not have anything to chew. It only gets food in large quantities and have to deal with the consequences. The problem is not the fruit, but in fructose (sugar) in it.

Research by the University of California shows that increased consumption of fructose can increase your body fat, but also can have many negative effects on your body. To achieve this level of fructose requires many fruits. But fruit juice that you drink can cause you many negative health consequences. So stick to water, tea or black coffee (in moderate quantities the last one of course).

“Foods with low fat are really healthy”

What is a food with “low fat”? They just removed the fat from the food, right? In the words of English nutritionist, Ben Coomber when you hear a “low fat”, make sure you have lots of chemical stuff in the product. That’s because when they remove the “fat” (or sugar in some cases) the product is filled with chemicals. Most of them are harmful to the body, and the biggest culprit is aspartame. So maybe it is better for your waist and your health to choose the option with full fat.

Conclusion? Do your own research

Do not just believe the claims of “professionals” about health on television or ads in the morning shows looking for you to go out and buy a product. If you’re planning to drive down food from your diet completely, do a quick search on “Google” and see if in fact there is any research to back up their claims. Because usually there is nothing to find.

Now, while we are talking about nutrition and food I will tell you about the connection between healthy food and natural beauty so please read…
