Six "pseudo-healthy" foods that seem to lose weight are actually getting fatter

In this era when everyone knows a little about health care, we are beginning to be picky about food.

fancy oatmeal

Legend has it that it has a particularly high nutritional value, adding various nutrients, rich in vitamins, minerals and rich dietary fiber, and I have also heard that it has low calories and is suitable for weight loss.

The truth: The sugar-raising rate is as high as 80 or more, which is actually comparable to the value of rice, and this oat is also rich in sugar and oil

Pit-avoidance guide: This oatmeal is not that oatmeal! What we mean by healthy oatmeal is whole oatmeal, not processed, sweetened oatmeal with added sugar and oil

fresh juice

Legend has it that it is rich in vitamins and dietary fiber, healthy and delicious!

The truth: After the juice is made, almost all of the dietary fiber that is insoluble in water is filtered out with the "pomace"

"Lancet Diabetes and Endocrinology" magazine, once published an article "Juice, but another form of sugar-sweetened beverage

The juice is in a liquid state and does not need to be chewed.

Pit Avoidance Guide: Don't squeeze the juice if you have nothing to do, just pick it up and chew it and you're done!

salad dressing

Although many people don't like to eat grass, how can people not bow their heads when they are walking on the road of gaining weight!

The truth: I wanted to eat more and lose weight, but salad dressing makes you fatter

And salad dressings of average quality, almost all contain trans fatty acids, which are very unhealthy.

Guidance for avoiding pits: It is recommended to use olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice, basil, rosemary, etc.

Whole Grain Biscuits

I heard that it has a strong sense of satiety, can lose weight, eat not fat, and is low in calories?

Truth: Actually, this is another pit

In the best-selling coarse grain biscuits of an online shopping software, the first ingredient list is wheat flour, and oatmeal, which is a coarse grain, is at the bottom, and the added amount is extremely low

Let's take a look at the nutrient list again, high oil, high carbohydrates, I really don't know the meaning of this biscuit, is it fattening?

Guide to avoiding pits: Do not eat or eat less

dried fruits and vegetables

Legend has it that it is nutritionally complete, healthy and low-fat, and can also supplement vitamins

The truth: Fruits and vegetables are "dehydrated to dryness", mainly by frying at low temperature to dry the moisture in fresh vegetables and fruits, allowing the oil to penetrate into the fruits and vegetables

This will add to the crispy texture

Moreover, most of the dried fruits and vegetables may lose sugar during the dehydration process.
In order to enhance the taste, merchants will add additional white sugar

Where is the good health?

Guide to avoiding pits: Make your own with no added dried fruits and vegetables or eat less

Black sesame paste

Legend has it that it not only nourishes hair, but is also rich in minerals and very healthy
.

The truth: I took a screenshot of a brand of black sesame paste with the highest sales in an online shopping software, and found that white granulated sugar and edible glucose ranked in the top three
.
And rice ranks first, and the sugar-rising speed of rice itself is high.
After being turned into powder, the sugar-rising speed is even faster (because of fast absorption), and with the blessing of white sugar and glucose, the sugar-rising speed is directly "flying"!

Some brands say that there is no added sucrose, and the added crystalline fructose is a free sugar like sucrose, and there is no difference at all
.

Guide to avoiding pits: Buying the first few ingredients in the ingredient list are beneficial ingredients.
For example, black sesame and black beans are in the front.
No or little sugar is added.
Sugar is at the back of the ingredient list, and there are no other ingredients.
A mess of additives
