Nutrition Myths Busted!
Myth 1

Drinking cold water will help you lose weight
because it encourages your body
to burn more calories.
It somehow stimulates your metabolism
is completely false.
However, choosing water over sugary soft drinks
means you takes in 100-150 fewer calories
- which is great news, since these calories
will eventually be converted to fat.
Myth 2

The fat content in dairy products varies.
Some products contain higher amounts of
saturated fats than others, and are therefore
less healthy.
But dairy is essential to a balanced diet
- cheese, yogurt and milk are rich in Vit A, B & D,
plus they contain calcium for strong teeth and bones.
Go for skim or low fat-dairy products,
which contain less saturated fat but the same level
of nutrients are the full-fat versions.
Myth 3
Low-carbohydrate diet loses weight for short term
and will likely to gain it all back.
It's better to eat complex carbs rather than
go on a low-carb diet - these give you sustained energy
and contain fibre to keep you full.
So choose whole-grain bread and pasta over the
refined white versions, and veggies like potatoes
and pumpkin (which also contain important vitamins,
minerals and phytonutrients.)
Myth 4
Breakfast is really about 'breaking' an overnight "fast".
Proved that teens who consistently ate breakfast
had better nutritional profiles.
They were less likely to be overweight,
and had better memory, grades, and school attendance.
On the other hand, breakfast skippers were often tired
and restless during the day.
Quick eats for breakfast:
1. Breakfast bar and low-fat milk
2. Yogurt topped with berries and granola
3. Peanut butter and banana on brown bread
Myth 5
When you see the "fat-free" on food labels,
it means the product contains less than
half a gram of fat per serving.
But calories-wise, the food maybe the same
as the regular versions, because extra ingredients
like sugar may have been added to make up
for the loss of flavour when the fat was eliminated.
Myth 6

What matters isn't when you eat,
but what you eat.
Weight gain is unavoidable when you take in
more calories than you burn, and calories have
the same effect on the body regardless of when
they are eaten. If you're hungry before bedtime,
forgo typical night-time snacks like chips,
ice-cream, and salted nuts, and reach for
an apple instead.
