2 Shocking Foods That Are Thought To Be Healthy But Actually Make You Fat
26 May
To be honest, for years I thought these foods were healthy and good for my body, how wrong and shocked was I when I learned the real truth.
The two foods on the spotlight are wheat products and fruit juice! I can almost see your eyes popping out of their sockets in disbelief! Do not worry, it is the same reaction I had when I first heard this.
Wheat products, which include most breads, cereals, pasta, bagels and so forth, are believed to be healthy by a lot of people. An article that I have read by Mike Geary (Certified Nutrition Specialist) suggests that a lot of people have some level of intolerance to the gluten that is found in wheat and some grains. Gluten intolerance usually causes an extreme physical reaction when ingesting gluten and can cause one to damage their intestines and can cause a poor absorption of minerals and vitamins.
It is said that people who take out wheat products off their nutrition for a couple of weeks almost always see a faster loss in weight, and their indigestion and headaches get under control. So if you are consuming large amounts of wheat, stay off it for a while and enjoy the benefits of consuming less wheat.
When it comes to fruit, do not get it twisted, fruit is very good for you, it is consuming the juice instead of the actual fruit that will make you fat. Let me try and explain this, it is when you over consume the juice that gets squeezed out of the fruit and this causes the fiber to get left behind in the fruit. Because the fiber gets left behind, you will not experience the full effect that fiber normally gives you because you are only consuming the juice. Secondly, the blood sugar response will be quick when you drink the fruit juice instead of consuming the actual fruit, because the juice will be lacking in fiber.
So now you know, if you over consume fruit juices instead of eating the actual fruit, it will make you fat. Eating whole fruits is great for a healthy overall nutrition. And you know the effects of eating wheat on your body and your weight.
