Three curious facts about yogurt
1. Smart marketers are not invented for nothing tiny packaging for yoghurts and desserts. Sold out this product much faster: very comfortable eat to eat yogurt from a small jar. Manufacturers went further and began to fill plastic cups content that resembles yogurt on the outside. There are brands that contain in their composition vegetable fat (often palm oil), which reduces the cost of production and is harmful to your health.
2. The fruit pieces in the yogurt, which attract many buyers – in fact the remnants of the so-called scrap obtained from making marmalade, juice, jelly. So don't flatter yourself.
3. Natural yogurt and yogurt product – two different things. Yoghurt can be stored up to 14 days at a temperature of +4...+6оС and yogurt product is 3 months at temperature +4...+25C. Forgery can be recognized by name, which is composed of the prefix "GURT": for example, "Fructidor" with strawberry-banana flavor.

Besides a large number of calories, fat and carbohydrates seem to be very questionable and some of the products in composition such candies. For example, white confectionery coating can be made of anything: the manufacturer does not indicate its composition. It tasted a bit like white chocolate. Perhaps it is a mixture of sugar and fat. Also, the composition is not specified what kind of vegetable fat used for making bars. Olive oil, sunflower seed oil or palm oil? To this question the answer is no.

Useful tips 1. When choosing a store between ready-made porridge and cereals, choose cereals. They are less calories.
2. Do not fall for clever advertising cereal diet for weight loss. Special taste they add sugar, chocolate chips and pieces of dried fruit.
3. If you decide to use ready-made porridge, muesli and cereal, then eat them later, not Breakfast. This is the best time to not a diet products.
4. Always remember that these foods are easy to gain weight, if you do not control their use.
Drinks for weight loss. Manufacturers actively offer us the jellies, compotes and smoothies for weight loss. They are packaged usually in small portions, which is convenient.
And what's in it? Take, for example, kissel: "Apples, magnesium sulfate, beet, citric acid, celery, corn silk, coriander, barberries, Laurel leaf, green tea, flavor "raspberry". Shell: sugar, potato starch, oats."
The calorie content of one sachet of jelly, from which a total of 200 ml ready drink – 67 kcal (!)
Surely you thought of that 67 kcal is not enough, and you still will not be able to drink enough jelly to sort out your daily calorie consumption. But in a normal home jelly without sugar only 10-20 kcal per 100 ml (all calories are contained in the starch, the caloric value depends on the density of the drink), and compote, they are almost there.
Let's do the math. For example, the day you drink three portions of jelly. Ready purchase jelly (volume 200 ml per serving) amount to 201 calories, and no sugar, only 60 calories. The difference is 141 kcal. And it's a good portion of low calorie but filling salad more useful than starch and sugar products!
Widely popular now, green coffee for weight loss.
In the package you will find the usual fried, and dried as is, coffee beans khaki. Ready drink has an herbal taste with a hint of coffee.
Advertising makes special emphasis on the fact that the product is natural (undoubtedly it is), helps to break down fat, increases physical activity and reduces appetite. Drink and lose weight!
What really? Without observing a strict diet and regular gym, no visible effect of green coffee you get. But you can be sure that diet and exercise will do the trick and without coffee. By the way, the cost of 200 grams of beans comes to 1500 rubles.
Repeated intake of tea from green coffee causes pressure surges and headaches, sleep disturbances, irritability, weakness and dizziness. People with chronic diseases of the heart and nervous system to drink green coffee without doctor's permission can not be!
The sellers came up with another trick – to prepare regular instant coffee supposedly with the addition of green beans. And this move worked, and sales increased. And dissatisfied customers who have not received the claimed result, while not diminished.
The popularity of ginger drink for weight loss. You can find it in the sale as a dry tea or coffee with ginger and other spices.
It turns out a great tonic, which is well quenches thirst, helps recover soon during colds, but completely useless for burning fat.
Buying so-called diet foods, advertising which promises great results in record time, remember that miracles do not happen. If you intend to lose weight using a special diet, do not forget that low-fat yoghurts, diet porridge, low calorie bars are not the Supplement to your diet and alternative. Consider the calorie content of foods, the fat content, stick to the obligatory diet and exercise.
