10 true facts about "slimming product"

Editorial extremely skeptical of the "superfoods" to lose weight. We have compiled a small selection of facts and convincing on how nutritionists are gradually taking over the world - and our wallets. < 1. According to WHO, the world's overweight has more than 1 billion people. 30% of them are obese. According to forecasts, while preserving the status quo in 15 years will be overweight in 40% of the population - in other words, almost every second.

2. The cheapest way to reduce calorie product - degreasing. After removing fat food loses its appearance and flavor - milk is more like water, yogurt - a lumpy mass of mucous, cottage cheese becomes dry and sour. Therefore, manufacturers of "finish" products without fat - added starch (to shape), and sweeteners to make it tasty.

3. In the small bars that are sold in parts of a healthy diet - 6 different sweeteners




4. Oat bran. Perhaps they really help in losing weight - but why so expensive? In the shops prices are ranging from 30 to 500 rubles. Bran - is waste that remains after the cleaning of grain. In the past - and that is logical - they are not worth anything , they fed the horses. Today, on the packaging bran put a picture of a world famous nutritionist Pierre Dyukanom (he first wrote about oat bran) - and the price soars to the heavens.

5. Maybe bran for 500 rubles differ from bran, bought for 30 rubles? In front of the Dyukanom put three cups with different cost bran and asked to pick the best (ie. E., "Your"). great nutritionist made a mistake! How is it - and why your bran, Monsieur Duke so expensive? He said he made his bran together with Finnish partners. Those bought bran in Russia (!), And then "a very accurate way of industrially processed, very technical." Skillfully operate, do not say anything.

6. In Russia, there are no clear rules as to what products are known as "low calorie." Manufacturers use the word as they want - so that the label «light» can stand on the package of green salad with an energy value of 60 kcal, and a pack of butter, where they were 560.

7. The concept of "calorie" is rather arbitrary. To find out how much calories a product before it was burned in a special oven - will provide much warmth, so much is calories. Today, manufacturers often simply rewrite the information about the calorie of the old directories, including even the Soviet era. But since then much has changed - and the conditions of production and the quality of ingredients and types of products.





8. Goji berries ... Sellers are assured - enough to take 20 g of berries a day, and the weight slowly but surely begin to decline. But no formal research organizations, this statement is not confirmed by , but the sellers themselves admit that the information taken from a Chinese website.

9. Reporters ordered goji examination in the laboratory of the Moscow State University of Food Production (MGUPP). Sellers miracle berry claim that the vitamin C content of this product is 500 times higher than the same figure for the orange.

Lead researcher Alexander wheeled MGUPP only shrugs in the provided samples for analysis of dried goji vitamin C content is "at a low level - 45 mg per 100 g, respectively»
10. Comes to the ridiculous: journalists found on the website selling goji berries a positive review of a doctor of medical sciences Dneprova. This is only the "research" on the Internet is not found , and the managers of the company to connect with the "Dnieper" refuse.

However, nutritionists do promote "supedfudy" - agree with the manufacturers on mutually beneficial terms, and then offer them to their clients. For this they get a good pay rise.

And finally: do you know how much money "diet" industry earns in a year? $ 2 000 000 000 000 - and that is to "superfudah" oat bran and consultations "nutritionists»! Maybe easier to go for vegetables, meat, fish and high-quality "milk", that is just a healthy low-calorie the nature of the food?
