Beauty and fitness are top priorities in our conscious-driven society. People are more proactive in terms of looking, feeling and being young. Males and females are both conscious of their diets and take it upon themselves to learn more on the kinds of food they should or should not eat, especially since there are many known foods that we believe are healthy, but turn out to contain hidden fats.
For instance, everyone knows that eating white meat is better than red. A good example of this is fish.
Because of this fatty acid, eating sushi rolls at Japanese restaurants should therefore be healthy. However, since some sushi rolls are lathered in cream cheese or mayonnaise, this increases the fat content of the dish.
Other ways of serving sushi includes frying them, or covering them with batter. Anything fried as we all know, is bad for our cholesterol levels.
Time and again, we have been advised against snacking heavily. Nevertheless, snacking on foods like crackers and dried fruits are considered okay. Lately however, dried fruits have been found to actually contain added calories because it is denser than fresh fruits and because of the sugar used in drying them.
Another recommended snack are granolas. They are especially healthy if they are home-made: some oatmeal, fruits and a bit of honey is way better than the commercially sold granolas that are high in sugar and calories.
Some foods for lunch and dinner can likewise be deceiving to the eye. Contrary to common knowledge, a veggie burger for example is not a healthy choice at all because it has many bad qualities to it.
Though it is true that it contains far less fat and cholesterol than meat burgers, the component that binds the veggie patty together is actually made up of cheeses and dressings that are high in caloric content.
Wise eating habits for a sexier and healthier you is easy to achieve. Always choose fresh foods over processed ones, and always remember to heed your nutritionist's advice!
