Top 10 diet & Nutrition Myths

[Niko]

1. Sugar Causes Diabetes The most common nutrition myth is
probably the misconception that sugar causes diabetes. If
you have diabetes, you do need to watch your sugar and
carbohydrate intake, with the help of your Registered
Dietitian, to properly manage your blood sugar level.
However, if you do not have diabetes, sugar intake will not
cause diabetes. So far, a diet high in calories, being
overweight and an inactive lifestyle are the main risk
factors for Type 2 diabetes.
2. All Fats are bad The fact is we all need fats. Fats help
nutrient absorption, nerve transmission and maintain cell
membrane integrity just to name a few functions. However,
when consumed in excessive amounts, fats contribute to
weight gain, heart disease and certain types of cancers.
Not all fats are created equal. Some fats promote our
health positively while some increase our risk for heart
disease. It is a long-held nutrition myth that all fats are
bad. The key is to replace bad fats (saturated fats and
trans fats) with good fats (monounsaturated fats and
polyunsaturated fats) in our diet.

3. Brown Sugar is better than White Sugar The brown sugar sold
at the stores is actually white granulated sugar with added
molasses. Yes, brown sugar contains minute amounts of
minerals. But unless you eat a gigantic portion of brown
sugar everyday - the mineral content difference between
brown sugar and white sugar is absolutely insignificant.
The idea that brown and white sugar have big differences is
another common nutrition myth.

Then what cause diabetes, other than refined carbohydrates?

It is not easy. We must eat proteins. Most prducts wchich
contain proteins contain also fats in the average proportion
one to one in grams. So an average person which eats about
100g eat automatically 100g of fats. So we can replace cream
on olive oil for salads only (or vice versa).

If we eat recomended amount of carbs (100g) we also have no
chose. We eat simply all sorts in small portions as
additives. So we have 3*100 diet. It makes 1700 kcal. An
average person needs about 2400. Where can we find 700 kcal?
!00g of alcohol have it. So we have discavered the perfect
diet "4*100 diet.". I am serious. Such diet is very popular
especially in hife life.

Waiting for congratulations S*
