The "healthy" foods that are actually harmful

Sometimes to understand the use of the product is not easy. Products marked "low sugar", "low carb" or "natural" may seem the right choice. But the practice proves the opposite, experts say.

According to The Daily Mail, dietitian Alison Ginn told what foods is to be feared, despite assurances of their safety and benefits.

First, harmful products with sugar substitutes (agave syrup, coconut sugar). More precisely, they are not safer than regular sugar.





Therefore, the surplus of the sweetener in the diet threatens to weight gain and a number of problems like tooth decay. In fact, the products are "sugar-free" still contain sugar. For example, 100 grams of white sugar contain 406 calories. In the agave syrup — 310 calories.

By the way, different nutrient and vitamin drinks can contain up to seven teaspoons of sugar per 500 milliliters (112 calories). Better to drink plain water without additives. If you want to diversify the taste, you can add to water herbs or fruits.

Another "useful" product — vegetable chips. They are made from beets, carrots. But in any case, add salt, increase the pressure. The level of salt in the vegetable chips is the same as usual. For example, in a 28-gram package of vegetable chips are about 130 calories, 7 grams of fat and 260 milligrams of salt. Fried chips — 150 calories, 9 grams of fat and 180 milligrams of salt.

A separate question — supposedly useful energy bars made from nuts, fruits. However, muesli bars on one-third consists of sugar (12.4 grams of sugar and 113 calories on average).





Nutritionists warn that the low fat yogurt and yogurt with flavoring, as a rule, also contain a lot of sugar.

Ideally, the yogurt should not be more than 15 grams of sugar and 2 grams of fat per 100 grams. A yogurt low in fat and about 19 grams of sugar and 1.1 grams of fat. In the usual Greek yogurt 2.7 grams of sugar and 4 grams of fat.published
