It can be difficult sifting through popular recipes or glorified health tips, which is why I found this article on http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/healthy-eating/a27119/popular-healthy-foods-that-arent-that-good-for-you/ that names seven popular healthy that aren’t actually healthy. The culprits include granola bars which can contain lots of processed ingredients and refined sugar, low-protein breakfast biscuits, store-bought juices that are high in effort and low in fiber, and low-calorie frozen meals with disastrous amounts of sodium. They also include gluten-free foods that don’t reap as many benefits as its reputation assumes, vitamin water that is saturated with sugar, and coconut oil which is alarmingly high in calories. The lesson learned is to not always trust healthy looking packaging or popular food trends. It’s worth taking a little extra time to read the nutrition label or do research on your favorite healthy foods.
