Beijing, Oct 16 (Xinhua) - according to a survey, some foods that we think are "healthy food", such as orange juice, gluten free cake, milk mix breakfast bar, frozen yoghurt and coconut oil, may not be healthy in fact, according to a recent Japanese article on australian.com Photo: a lemur with ring tail enjoys frozen yoghurt The excerpts are as follows: Livelighter, an Australian Health Organization, recently conducted a study on healthy food jointly with the Cancer Council Victoria and the heart foundation The survey found that some foods that people think are healthy may not be healthy According to the report, livelighter surveyed 1097 adults aged 18 to 64 and 134 nutritionists in Victoria, and asked them to classify 57 kinds of food and drinks as healthy or unhealthy The results were very surprising 1 Orange juice Although people generally believe that orange juice is a healthy drink, the nutritionists surveyed do not think that orange juice is a healthy food Among them, 71% of adults think orange juice is a healthy food, but 76% of health experts disagree Alison McAleese, campaign manager of livelighter, said nutritionists don't think orange juice is a healthy food because it has a high sugar content The Australian diet guidelines also suggested that orange juice should only be used as an occasional food choice instead of replacing fruit 2 Gluten free cake Most people already know that cake is not a healthy food, but 44% of the respondents believe that gluten free cake is healthy However, 94% of nutritionists said that gluten free cake is not a healthy food either Although gluten free cake is a better choice for celiac patients, it is definitely not a healthy food 3 Milk mix breakfast bar Only 18% of nutritionists said that milk breakfast bar is a healthy food, while 52% of the respondents think it is a healthy food Therefore, if parents often buy milk and assorted breakfast sticks for their children, they should consider choosing other foods 4 Frozen yoghurt Mccallis says frozen yogurt sounds like one of them, but it's actually closer to ice cream, especially the one you buy in the store In addition, because of the great difference between people's and experts' ideas on frozen yoghurt, mccallis suggested that people take frozen yoghurt as "an occasional food, rather than a daily food" 5 Coconut oil Recently, there have been heated discussions on coconut oil, and different experts have expressed different views But according to the survey, 75% of respondents think coconut oil is a healthy food But 85% of nutritionists don't think so At present, coconut oil is very popular and is often sold as a healthy food, mccallis said But they think coconut oil is high in saturated fat and does cause cholesterol to rise.
